Raymond J. Aleman Sr.

A life long New Orleans native. He loved the Louisiana outdoors, fishing, hunting, and family gatherings including seafood boils. A man with an enormous pure and generous heart who would give the shirt off of his back to anyone. A very dedicated father and husband who worked hard his entire life to provide for his family. He enjoyed spending time with friends and family, and was always willing to help in any way.

He leaves behind his wife of 57 years, Maria Drago Aleman, and his five children Raymond J. Aleman, Jr. (Lori), Shaun Paul Aleman (Wendy) , Jason Matthew Aleman (Mandy) , Michelle Aleman Couhig (Rob) , and Scott Edward Aleman.

He also leaves five beloved granddaughters: Aubrie, Maria, Sarah, Emily and Alyssa. He was very proud of his granddaughters and showed his love for them in so many ways, including an insistence on making them breakfast whenever he saw them; and they loved their Paw Paw.

He was proceeded in death by his parents Delmayne and Viola Aleman; brother Delmayne Aleman, Jr. and sister Joycelyn Aleman Bulot.

Services will be held at Lake Lawn Cemetery on Wednesday October 16, 2019 with visitation from 10am until 12 with a funeral mass at noon.
