A resident of Lafayette, Louisiana for most of his life, Louis was a loving but stubborn individual. He loved his grandchildren most of all. His dog, DJ was a close second. He loved fishing and was darn good at it. He also enjoyed his lifelong profession as an independent petroleum landman. Louis enjoyed helping neighbors out as much as he could and being a part of the 1 man neighborhood watch. He was truly a southern gentleman who always held the door open for others and up until time of death, used his manners that his mother and father instilled in him as a young boy.

The family requests that visitation be observed in Martin & Castille's DOWNTOWN location on Friday from 10:00 AM until time of service.

A heartfelt appreciation is extended by the Evans family to the staff of Lafayette General Medical Center for their help and kindness, and to Buddy Champagne for his friendship and loyalty throughout the years.
