Born on August 1, 1951, in New Iberia, Louisiana to the late Alton Joseph and Rena Boudreaux Froisy. Louis lived a life defined by hard work, dedication, and love for his family. He proudly served his country in the United States Army, fulfilling his military service with honor and patriotism.
Following his military service, Louis spent many years working in residential construction, where he was respected for his strong work ethic and craftsmanship. He also had a passion for woodworking, taking great pride in creating beautiful pieces with his hands. Whether building, repairing, or crafting, Louis found joy in working with wood and sharing his talents with others.
An avid outdoorsman, Louis cherished time spent fishing, hunting, and target shooting. Some of his happiest moments were enjoyed in the outdoors, surrounded by nature and the people he loved.
Louis was a faithful member of Temple Baptist Church, where his faith served as a guiding light throughout his life. He will be remembered for his quiet strength, generous heart, unwavering devotion to his family, and willingness to lend a helping hand whenever it was needed.
Above all else, Louis treasured his family. He was a loving father, a proud grandfather and great-grandfather, a devoted brother, and a caring uncle. The memories he created, the lessons he taught, and the love he shared will remain in the hearts of those who knew him.
May he rest in eternal peace.
