Eldon Joseph Authement, 66, passed away surrounded by his loving family on July 4, 2026, in Saucier, MS. He was born on March 11, 1960, in Houma, LA, to Anna Lee Sevin Authement and the late Eldon Joseph Authement Sr.

Eldon was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend.  He went to be with the Lord, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, faith, and unwavering love for his family.  A proud Louisiana native from Houma, Eldon carried the warmth and humility of his roots throughout his life.

Eldon was a family man who always prioritized his loved ones.  He found joy in simple, meaningful moments—sharing meals, gathering with family and friends, enjoying his morning coffee, and tending to the home he cherished.  A true jack-of-all-trades, Eldon loved building, gardening, working in the yard, fishing, and deer hunting. He had a special affection for animals, especially in raising and caring for his chickens.

Eldon was a faithful and Godly man with a quiet spirit and a servant’s heart that touched many lives. Though naturally shy, his kindness spoke volumes, and he gave the world everything he had in goodness and love.

Christmas was particularly dear to him; he delighted in decorating, dressing as Santa Claus, and bringing joy to children. Eldon will be remembered for the little things he did that made life more beautiful through the acts of love that will remain in the hearts of those who knew him.  Eldon was truly one of a kind, a gentle, loving soul who will be deeply missed and forever remembered.

He is preceded in death by his father, Eldon Joseph Authement Sr., and his sister, Sheila Naquin.

Eldon is survived by his loving wife of thirty-one years, Lisa Authement; his children, Anjelika (Erin) Bourg, Tiffany (Kenneth) Callahan, Dava (Clarence) Hau, Felicity (Brett) Authement, Dakota (Athena) Authement, Skylar Hotard, Joseph Bourg, and Nicole (Roy) Robinson; his mother, Anna Lee Authement; one brother, Ricky (Darlene) Authement; and two sisters, Anette (Jeremy) Whitmill and Cynthia (Ron) Ratliff. Eldon leaves a legacy of numerous grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and many other beloved family members.
