Mamou ~ It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that the family of Chauncey Fontenot announces his passing on Tuesday, July 18, 2017 at the age of 30.
Chauncey was a loving husband, amazing father, son, and brother. Everyone that knew him knew his laugh, his smile, and how much he adored his family. Chauncey was gifted with many talents, he was a welder, hunter, and a storyteller. He would light up a room just by walking through the door. Although his family loved him dearly, the ducks feared him. He instilled his love of hunting in his wife and children.
