Alton Hymel Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Oct. 13 to Oct. 15, 2021.
Alton C. Hymel Jr., of Slidell, Louisiana, passed away on October 6, 2021 surrounded by the love of his family at the age of 63. He is a native of New Orleans, Louisiana, born on June 2, 1958, to his loving parents, the late Agnes R. Hymel and Alton C. Hymel Sr. Alton is the beloved husband of 40 years to Toni Dawson Hymel; cherished father of Scott Michael Hymel (Danielle) and Jennifer Marie Hymel Ledet (Joseph); and proud grandfather of Cameron, Cullen, Lucas, Wyatt, and Miri Ann. Alton is a graduate of Brother Martin with the Class of 1976. He was employed with Obsidian, Harris, Unisys, Burroughs, and most recently, Raytheon Technologies. Alton enjoyed playing golf, traveling, and relaxing on his porch in his spare time. He was an animal lover and liked watching hummingbirds, giving Rupert belly rubs, and rubbing Kilos ears and hearing him purr. Alton treasured nothing more than the time he spent with his family, especially playing with his grandkids and watching them act silly. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Relatives and friends are invited to attend a visitation on Friday, October 15, 2021, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Audubon Funeral Home in Slidell. A Funeral Mass will begin at 6:00 p.m. in the chapel. A private burial will take place at Greenwood Mausoleum in New Orleans at a later date. Memories and condolences may be expressed at www.AudubonFuneralHome.com.

On behalf of the Brothers of the Sacred Heart Alumni Association and Brother Martin High School, I offer our prayers and condolences. We will say a Mass in his memory.

Father of all, we pray to you for Alton, all those we love but see no longer. Grant to them eternal rest. Let light perpetual shine upon them. May his soul and the souls of all the departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
