Alton Paul Dupre, age 78, a native and resident of Houma, LA passed away on Tuesday, August 26, 2025.
Alton was a sweet, gentle, and loving man. He never had a bad word said against him. Alton was a part of the United States Marine Corps and served in The Vietnam War. He lost his Terrebonne High School graduation ring while serving in Okinawa, Japan and it was returned to him years later at home. Alton started working as a welder and eventually became an electrician. He worked hard for his family and loved them dearly. Alton knew it was his time and was ready to go home. He will be truly missed by all who knew him.
A visitation will be held in his honor on Saturday, August 30, 2025 at Samart Funeral Home of Houma, Bayou Blue, from 9:00 am until the Funeral Service at 11:00 am. The burial will follow in St. Louis Cemetery in Bayou Blue, LA.
