My condolences to family and friends.
I worked with Raul at the post office in '67 to '77. He taught me how to be a better mailman as well as a better person.

For my Uncle Raul, I will miss you,
Lana Gutierrez Chouest

"We had a wonderful uncle,
One who never really grew old;
His smile was made of sunshine,
And his heart was solid gold;
His eyes were as bright as shining stars,
And in his cheeks fair roses you see.
We had a wonderful uncle,
And that’s the way it will always be.
But take heed, because
He’s still keeping an eye on all of us,
So let’s make sure
He will like what he sees."

Sorry for you loss.  I knew Raul for a long time, him and his brother.  We grew up together in Old Metairie known as "hog ally".  I'll be praying for his family

our thoughts & prayers are with you in your time of grief. may your memories bring you comfort.

My deepest condolences to Raul's family.  I will always remember him as 
"Tarzan" our goalkeeper for the Americas and Santos soccer teams. He was a winner and a good friend to all of us.  He was the #1 goal keeper in New Orleans soccer in our time.  God Bless you and rest in peace my friend.

Miguel,
Our sincere deepest sympathy at the loss of your brother, Raul.
Gayle and Vic Lockhart


I have known Raul since our childhood.   We played together as kids and have seen each other over the years and have always remained good friends,  I will remember him forever and will miss him dearly.                                                                                             

 My condolences to Raul’s son, daughters,  Grandchildren ,
 Great grandchildren, brothers and sisters. 

 I was fortunate to live just down the street from the Gutierrez’s,  I consider all to be a friend my memories of being at their house for get-togethers for many different occasions including St. Patrick’s Day parade’s which were before and after the parade with yard games, music, good food and drink.  Many times most of the brothers and sisters were there including friends from the neighborhood  Those were fun times.   Again sorry for your loss Fran
