Steve Morvant, 43, of Marrero, LA took his final breath and entered into enteral rest the night of December 24, 2020, while surrounded by those who loved him most.
Steve was born March 11, 1977 and lived his entire life on the Westbank of New Orleans. He was a devoted husband of 19 years and a loving father. Steve was an avid softball player who sadly had to hang up his cleats after his cancer diagnosis. He continued his love for the game through his young daughter, coaching when possible and always cheering from the stands.
For the past two and a half years, Steve fought a heroic battle against cancer. His constant upbeat attitude, determination and kindness he exuded, inspired us all to be just like him. Steve left a legacy that will carry on through us all. #Forever14
Steve was loved and will be missed by many. His fun-loving personality has made an impact throughout our community where he was known as everyone’s “Uncle Stevie.”
Steve leaves behind a loving wife (Christina), his baby girl (Baileigh) and his faithful fur baby (Butters). He is survived by his father and mother (Jesse and Brenda Morvant), his sister Lisa (Dave Marcel), Godson (Tyler), as well as several uncles, aunts and cousins. He is preceded in death by his paternal grandparents (Jesse, Sr. and Betty Morvant), his maternal grandparents (Wilfred “Sonny” and Opal Duplessis) and his Godmother (Mayola Graver).
