Tyrone Joseph Honore Sr.

Tyrone Joseph Honore', Sr., a native of Plaquemine and a resident of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, passed away peacefully in his sleep on November 15, 2020. Many who knew him called him "Terrible T", but those who loved him called him "Pops." Tyrone turned 80 in September and was pleasantly surprised by family and friends with a "drive-by" birthday celebration. He was a retired carpenter, an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting and fishing, and a sports fan who loved the Los Angeles Dodgers and any team LeBron James played on. His greatest passion, though, was spending time with his family, especially when it involved good food and playing cards. All you had to do was announce a "card party," and Tyrone was ready with quarters and cards in tow. He was a loving father, grandfather and great-grandfather who will be deeply missed. Visitation at Rabenhorst Funeral Home, 825 Government Street on Thursday, November 19, 2020 from 5 pm - 8 pm, mask required. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at St. Agnes Catholic Church, 749 East Blvd, at 11 am, recitation of the rosary at 10:30 am, on Friday, November 20, 2020. Father Brent Maher will celebrate the mass. Interment in Greenoaks Memorial Park, 9595 Florida Blvd. Due to COVID restrictions, funeral services will be private and limited to immediate family only.
