George Gus Albert III

George Gus Albert, III, 67, a native of Plaquemine and a resident of Donaldsonville, Louisiana, was born on March 10, 1959, and died on May 25, 2026, at the Baton Rouge General-Bluebonnet in Baton Rouge.

As George peacefully passed, surrounded by his loving family, a beautiful rainbow appeared across the sky – a gentle reminder of the enduring beauty of his spirit, offering comfort in knowing he is now at peace and free from pain.

George was a devoted husband, loving father, and proud grandfather whose greatest joy was his family. He will be deeply missed, especially by his beloved grandchildren, Jacob and Aubrey, who adored him and whom he cherished beyond measure. The time spent with them brought him endless happiness and created memories that will forever be treasured.

George was an exceptional mechanic whose talent, dedication, and kindness were valued by many throughout the community. Even after long days at work, he could often be found late into the night and on weekends working on vehicles for family, friends, and neighbors. Deeply devoted to his profession, George possessed a remarkable gift for diagnosing a vehicle’s problem simply by listening to the rattle of an engine. Over the years, he earned numerous certifications in his trade, including certification as an electronic technician-a reflection of both his skill and his commitment to excellence.

George is survived by his wife of 39 years, Theresa Hernandez Albert; his daughters, Brittney Falcon (John), Kelsey Albert (Seth Chustz), and Jennifer Morvant; grandchildren, Jacob and Aubrey Falcon and Joy and Keith Morvant; sister, Sandra Falcon (Charles “Butch”); brothers, Ronald Albert, Steven Albert (Penny), and Larry Albert; brother-in-law, Adam Hernandez, III (Kristine); sister-in-law’s, Alida Chiquet (Kip) and Pamela Parker; godchildren, Desiree Falcon and Chelsea Roberts; and many loving nieces and nephews.

George was preceded in death by his parents, George Gus Albert, Jr. and Frances Cannella Albert; sister and brother-in-law, Diana and Jerry Guimbellot; brother, Jeffrey Albert; father-in-law, Adam Hernandez, Jr., and mother-in-law, Frances Hernandez.
