He was born to the union of the late Larry Narcisse Sr and Eula Mae Narcisse. “Spanky” as he was affectionately called was the eldest of three children, Chasna Narcisse and Sade Grows.

Larry, who professed Christ as his personal Lord and Savior, was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on September 8, 1970, to the late Larry Narcisse, Sr., and Eula Mae Narcisse.

He is survived by his loving and devoted wife of 22 years, Shelly Sylvain Narcisse; son Mason Narcisse; sisters Chasna Narcisse and Sade’ Grows.

Afterwards, he attended and graduated from Jefferson Parish Vocational Technical School. Larry was most recently employed by O’Reily Auto Parts in Reserve, Louisiana.

The enjoyment of his life was fulfilled by watching his son, Mason, play several sports from his childhood until his collegiate years at the University of Louisiana in Lafayette. If he wasn’t under the stadium lights or traveling to away football games Larry enjoyed spending time with the love of his life, Shelly. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, attending family gatherings and hanging with friends, cooking, and eating. Larry enjoyed having a good time, dancing, and enjoying life. He never met a stranger.
