Amanda Marie Courteaux Varnado, 39, a native of Houma and a resident of Morgan City, passed away on Sunday, September 29, 2024.
She is survived by her husband, Mario Varnado; children, Miranda Courteaux, Joni Courteaux, Destiny Varnado, and Neveah Varnado; stepdaughter, Diamand Varnado; father, Desire DeHart, Sr. (Stephanie Voisin); mother, Melinda Courteaux; brothers, Charles Courteaux, Desire DeHart, Jr. (Brandi DeRoche), Bryan DeHart, Erick DeHart, and Steven Voisin; maternal grandparents, Leah Courteaux and James Courteaux; and many extended family members and dear friends.
She was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents, Desire DeHart and Nora DeHart; and nephew, Zephaniah Brown.
Amanda was a beautiful, smart, kind, caring, and loving but blunt person. She wasn’t scared to put anyone in their place. She was an outgoing and unique woman. Amanda may not have always been perfect but she never gave up on trying her best with what she already had. Here are some things she loved: Going to the beach just to sit there and listen to the waves; Going hiking and finding new places to see; Playing pool and dancing; Going fishing, hunting, and crabbing; Hanging out with friends and family. Most of all she loved her bike rides and walks at night and all of her kids. This is who Amanda Courteaux was as a person.
A memorial visitation will be held on Friday, October 11, 2024 at Samart Funeral Home on West Park from 4:30 pm until the memorial service at 6:30 pm.
