Joey Anthony Marcotte

Joey Anthony Marcotte, born on August 2, 1957, in Moreauville, Louisiana, passed away at his home on October 9, 2026, in Denham Springs, Louisiana, surrounded by his loving family.

Joey was a 1975 graduate of Moreauville High School and spent his life as a hardworking businessman and contractor. He was the proud owner of Marcotte Builders and Red Hot Trucking and Construction, LLC. Work was more than just a career for Joey—it was something he genuinely enjoyed. Whether he was operating big, heavy equipment, working on a project, or cutting his grass no less than three days a week, Joey was happiest when he was busy and getting something done.

Joey also had a lifelong love for anything fast. From powerboats to the drag strip, he enjoyed the thrill of speed and spent many years as an NHRA/IHRA Top Dragster driver. Racing was a special part of his life and reflected his adventurous spirit and love for a little horsepower.

Above all, Joey was a hardworking man who lived life on his own terms, stayed busy doing the things he loved, and treasured being surrounded by his family. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

Joey is survived by his wife of 47 years, Elizabeth Juneau Marcotte; sons, Scott Marcotte (Meghan) and Brad Marcotte (Brittany); grandchildren, Addison Marcotte, Caden Marcotte, Parker Marcottte, and Cole Marcotte.; and his special companion, his puppy, Toby.

Joey is preceded in death by his mother, Hortense Marcotte.
