Born November 26, 1973, passed September 14, 2025, at the age of 51, to enter into his heavenly home. He was a native and resident of Hammond, LA. “CC” was a gifted and skilled mechanic and enjoyed hunting and fishing, but above all, he loved his family. To know him was to love him. He was always a humble and kind-hearted man who would help anyone in need. He was a loving son, brother, uncle, cousin, daddy, and friend to many, who is already dearly missed by all who knew him.
