Robert D. English

Robert Dee English, 55, passed away surrounded by his wife and children on June 25, 2024.

Robert was born on October 29, 1968 to Virgil and Mary English in Hot Springs, Arkansas. He graduated from Huntington High School in 1986, then continued his education and received a bachelor’s degree from Louisiana State University. In 1991, he met Susan Beth Thomas, and they wed in 1994, going on to have two children, Carrigan and Jonathan.

Robert primarily worked as an automobile repair sales consultant for 34 years, yet he spent his spare evenings and weekends assisting members of the community with lawn care and maintenance. Robert’s selflessness knew no bounds, as he always put others before himself.

Robert was a devoted husband and loving father, whose morals are instilled in his children today. He taught Carrigan the importance of perseverance and patience, and he taught Jonathan the value of a good work ethic.

Robert enjoyed running, golfing, deep sea fishing, attending concerts, and cheering on the LSU Tigers.

Robert is survived by his Wife, Susan English; his Daughter, Carrigan English; his Son, Jonathan English; and his Father, Virgil English. He is preceded in death by his Mother, Mary English.
