Posted on July 6, 2025 by Usainsightreport

Lafourche Parish, LA — A heartbreaking and deeply tragic incident unfolded in the early morning hours of Saturday, July 5, 2025, leaving two young men dead and an entire community in mourning. Draven Hendon, 30, of Thibodaux, and Jordan Landry, 22, of Houma, both lost their lives under devastating circumstances that have left friends, families, and residents of Lafourche Parish searching for answers and comfort in the face of unimaginable grief.

While full details are still being investigated by the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office, authorities have confirmed that the incident occurred during the early morning hours on Saturday. Emergency responders were dispatched to the scene, where both Hendon and Landry were found deceased. The nature of the tragedy has not been fully disclosed to the public as law enforcement officials continue to piece together the events leading up to the incident.

What is clear, however, is that two promising lives were cut far too short, leaving an immeasurable void in the hearts of those who knew them.

Remembering Draven Hendon

Draven Hendon, 30, was a proud Thibodaux native known for his intelligence, wit, and magnetic personality. Friends describe him as a fiercely loyal individual who deeply valued family and community. Draven was passionate about music, sports, and helping others, often the first to show up when someone was in need. His vibrant energy, kind heart, and easy laughter made him beloved by those who had the privilege to know him. Draven’s death has sent shockwaves through the Thibodaux area, where he was a respected and loved figure in the local community.

Remembering Jordan Landry

Jordan Landry, 22, of Houma, was just beginning to carve out a promising future. With dreams that extended far beyond Lafourche Parish, Jordan was ambitious, hardworking, and full of life. Known for his gentle demeanor and generous spirit, he was a friend to many and a source of light to all who crossed his path. Jordan’s family described him as someone with a heart “bigger than the world,” who brought joy to every room he entered. His passing at such a young age is an unbearable loss for those who knew and loved him.

A Community in Mourning

As the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office continues its investigation, the community has come together in collective mourning. Vigils are being planned, and social media has been flooded with tributes, prayers, and memories of both men. The profound sorrow felt throughout Thibodaux, Houma, and the surrounding areas is a testament to the love and admiration both Draven and Jordan inspired in life.

This tragedy is a solemn reminder of the fragility of life and the importance of holding our loved ones close. Grief counselors and support services are being made available to residents of both communities as they navigate this difficult time.

Sheriff Craig Webre released a brief statement offering condolences to the families: “Our hearts are with the loved ones of Draven Hendon and Jordan Landry. We are committed to conducting a thorough investigation into this tragic incident and will continue to support the families and community however we can.”

Funeral arrangements for both men are expected to be announced in the coming days. Friends, relatives, and community members are encouraged to attend services and support the families as they face the long road of healing ahead.

Our hearts go out to the Hendon and Landry families. May Draven and Jordan rest in eternal peace, and may their memories live on through all those they touched.
