Eugene is survived by his children, Cindy LeBlanc (Perry), Carl Authement (Jeannette), and Brad Authement (Michelle); brother, Willard Authement; grandchildren: Kaylie LeBlanc, Kassie LeBlanc (Craig), Derek Authement (Kristy), Heather Trosclair (Saul), Mikenzi Authement (Devon) and Jaci Authement; and four great-grandchildren: Kinsley, Brynleigh, Layken and Landon.

Eugene was a long-time boat captain. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, and gardening in his younger days. He also enjoyed a good, sweet treat when there was any around. He was a quiet reserved man, but all who knew him knew the love he had for his wife, children, and family.

The family would like to thank Todd Luke with Cajun Homesitters for his time, dedication, and compassionate care he served Eugene over the last year and Hope Healthcare and Hospice.

A visitation will be held in his honor on Friday, June 2, 2023 at St. Ann Catholic Church, Bourg, Louisiana from 9:30 am until the Mass of Christian Burial at 11:30 am. The burial will follow in St. Ann Cemetery.
