A life of faith, family, service, and love.
Louis A. Erebia III lived a life shaped by faith, family, service, and community. He was known across Houston and the North Channel area as a protector, a helper, a coach, a mentor, a husband, a father, a grandfather, and a man of God. His life was ordinary in the ways that matter most and extraordinary in the ways he showed up for others.
Louis's greatest pride was his family. He loved deeply, protected fiercely, and showed up with the kind of steady presence that made people feel safe, seen, and loved. As a husband, father of five, and grandfather, he built a legacy of love that will continue through the people he raised and the family he cherished.
Louis's faith was not something he only spoke about. It was something he lived through service, generosity, humility, and love for people. His connection to The River Church and his walk with God shaped how he treated every person who crossed his path.
He poured into young people through youth baseball, coaching, and mentorship. He supported families in the neighborhood, at church, and in the wider North Channel community. He served long after he had to. He was the kind of man people called when they needed help, and he answered.
Louis's story does not end with what happened to him. His legacy continues through his family, the young people he encouraged, the community he served, and every person choosing to carry forward his love, courage, and faith. This site exists so his life is remembered fully, honestly, and with the dignity he gave to everyone he met.
“He was the man who showed up — for his family, his church, and anyone who needed him.”
