Marcel Anthony Chauvin, age 66, passed away on Tuesday, February 17, 2026. A native of New Orleans and a resident of Marrero, Louisiana, he was born on September 10, 1959, to the late Vivian Marie Templet Chauvin and Theron Charles Chauvin, Sr. He was the loving husband of Marissa Short Chauvin and the devoted father of Dylan Anthony Chauvin (Jasmine).

Marcel was preceded in death by his parents, Theron Charles Chauvin, Sr. and Vivian Marie Templet Chauvin; his brother, Theron Charles Chauvin, Jr., and his granddaughter, Skyler Rose Chauvin. Marcel enjoyed fishing, gardening, and spending time at his property surrounded by nature.
