Frank David Guidry

Frank David Guidry, 89, of Nederland, died Thursday, January 15, 2026. He was born on September 19, 1936, in Port Arthur to Jule and Lucile Guidry.

Although Mr. Guidry was a seventy-year member of Insulators Local 22, Houston, Texas, he pursued art as an avocation. His BA in Fine Arts from Lamar Tech fueled his desire to create, and many of his sketches, oil paintings and watercolors hang in family members’ homes.

Survivors include his wife of sixty-five years, Mary; children, Rene Guidry and his wife, Tonya and Desiree Guidry; grandchildren, Nicole Guidry, Cody Guidry and his wife, Amanda, Cole Guidry and his partner, Matt Mills, Robert Coats, and Taylor Coats and his wife, Tuyet; and great-grandchildren, Lennon and Stone Guidry, Ashton, Autumn, and Asher Coats.

He is preceded in death by his parents and sister, Theresa Sykes.

A gathering of Mr. Guidry’s family and friends will be from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m., Monday, January 19, 2026, at Broussard’s, 505 North 12th street, Nederland. His graveside service will be 10:00 a.m., Tuesday, January 20, 2026, at Memory Gardens of Jefferson County, Nederland.

The family would like to personally thank Caroline, Kaitlyn and Renee at Heart to Heart Hospice for their excellent care during this difficult time. Special thanks to his sitter, Jamie, for her help.
