Vincent Joseph Culotta passed away peacefully while surrounded by his daughters on June 18, 2020 at the age of 91. He was the beloved husband of the late Betty Roberts Culotta. Loving Father of Charlotte LaFond (Peter), Helayne Abston (Don), and Carla Jeansonne (Rene’). Born September 1, 1928, to the late Joseph and Mary Del Buono Culotta.

Proud grandfather of Kara Jeansonne Trombini, Brent Jeansonne, and Lane Abston. Great grandfather of Calvin and Colette Trombini and Leighton Jeansonne. He is survived by numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and dear friends.

Vincent was a proud native of Chalmette, LA and a lifelong resident of St. Bernard Parish, where he enjoyed a long career with Murphy Oil, retiring in 1988. He will be fondly remembered for the full beer keg he always had at his house for visitors, the enormous Good Friday crawfish boils he threw, his prolific garden full of Creole tomatoes, and above all his sweet spirit and generous heart. He will be deeply missed by his family and by all those whose lives he touched.

The family wishes to thank Anne Favret, NP, and the staff at Inspired Living Kenner for their care and dedication.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend a visitation to be held at ST. BERNARD MEMORIAL FUNERAL HOME, 701 W.

He will be laid to eternal rest with his beloved wife in St. Bernard Memorial Gardens.
