Val was born on December 8, 1950, in New Orleans, La., to Valmont T. Terrebonne, Sr. and Emelda Pedelahore. He graduated from St. Aloysius High School in New Orleans, La. in 1968. He married his High School sweetheart, Gayle, on Mardi Gras Day in 1970.
Val was unforgettable with his big heart and even bigger personality. His family always came first in his life. He loved fishing, cooking, old cars, trains, and Cajun ingenuity. Most of all he treasured a good laugh with family and friends.
Val was preceded in death by his father, mother and sister. He is survived by his wife, Gayle, his daughter, Kristie (John), his son, Jeffrey (Laura), his 5 precious grandchildren, Jonah, Sofia, Kensey, Jane and Anne, and his brother, Andrew (Deborah).
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, August 3, 2019 from 10am-1pm at the Ochsner Brent House Hotel Conference Room on the second floor. The Brent House Hotel is adjacent to Ochsner Hospital at 1512 Jefferson Hwy, New Orleans, La 70121.
