Our most sincere condolences to the family, friends, and community of Tyrone White. He was an outstanding friend and Trooper. He was also a great mentor to many and loved counseling kids. Tyrone was among the first counselors at Our Youth Leadership Development Camp and served for many years as a camp counselor at Camp Win-A-Friend. We thank God for M/T Tyrone White!
We are deeply saddened by the passing of retired Louisiana State Police Trooper Tyrone White, Sr., a longtime resident of Thibodaux, Louisiana, who passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family.
Trooper White was a dedicated public servant whose life of service, integrity, and commitment left an enduring mark on our community. He was widely respected and truly beloved by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
From an early age, Marshal Calvin Cooks, Sr. admired Trooper White, often seeing him in uniform within the neighborhood and viewing him as a symbol of professionalism and honor.
Years later, as a young law enforcement officer, Marshal Cooks continued to seek and receive guidance from Trooper White, whose counsel and encouragement helped shape his career.
Marshal Cooks shared that he had the opportunity to visit Trooper White a few months ago. His wisdom, steady leadership, and unwavering dedication to public service influenced countless lives and set a standard that will not be forgotten.
On behalf of Marshal Calvin Cooks, Sr. and the entire Thibodaux City Marshal's Office, we extend our heartfelt prayers, sincere condolences, and deepest gratitude to the White family and friends.
We thank Trooper Tyrone White, Sr. for his years of faithful service and for the legacy of honor, compassion, and mentorship he leaves behind. His memory will forever remain in our hearts and in the community he served so well.
