Maurice "Ike" H. Hart

Maurice “Ike” H. Hart passed away on July 15, 2020 just shy of his 88th birthday. Ike was born in New Orleans, LA to his loving parents; the late Hugh and Maude Wilson Hart. He has now reunited with his late wife, Audrey Gaudet Hart, in their heavenly home. Those left behind to cherish the memories are his children; JoAnn Hart, Brian Hart (Lisa) and Keith Hart (Deborah), his grandchildren; Kory Hart (Linzy), Cody Hart (Chloe), Haley Bush (Grant), Ethan Hart and Chloe Hart and his great-grandchildren; Liam and Piper Hart.

Ike was truly a man of faith and family. He was a lifetime parishioner of St. Clement of Rome Catholic Church, where he practiced his devotion faithfully. Ike enjoyed the great outdoors, whether he was hunting, fishing or just out cutting his grass. Those who knew him loved him, he was always a loyal friend to those around. Nothing quite compared to the love he had for his family. Being a grandfather was truly a blessing to him, he loved them more than words could express. He will be greatly missed by all of those who knew him.
