Michael "Mike" Joseph Jambon
d. May 10, 2022
Michael “Mike” Joseph Jambon, age 84, died peacefully at his home in Mathews, Louisiana, on May 10, 2022.
Mike was a loving husband, father, uncle, grandfather, great-grandfather and friend. A native of Cut Off, Louisiana, he worked as a school teacher before beginning a sixty-year career as an insurance agent. Mike loved life, loved people, and especially loved spending time with his family and friends and making people laugh. He was a natural storyteller who enjoyed and displayed great talent in many endeavors throughout his life, including wood-working, photography, and music. He enjoyed fishing and being on the water, dancing and singing, sharing a good meal and a drink, traveling and meeting new people, rooting for the Saints and the Tigers, supporting community organizations and charitable causes, and speaking his native French language and welcoming French-speaking tourists to Louisiana. Mike was a man of great faith and a parishioner of Holy Savior Catholic Church in Lockport, and his faith inspired his life to be one of generosity and compassion.
