A resident of Holden, LA, passed away on Thursday, January 15, 2026 at her home. She was born March 17, 1964 in Amite, LA and was 61 years of age. Tabitha Arceneaux was a lot of things to a lot of people…devoted wife, mother, Nana, daughter, sister, friend. She was also a collector….she collected purses, brooches, hats, antiques….but her most prized possession she collected was people. She was loving and kind but also knew how to tell people the difficult things. She had a larger than life personality, and somehow made everyone feel like her best friend. She was one of the lucky people to have found and married her soul mate they were together for 43 years and rarely ever did you see one without the other. Her greatest accomplishment in life was her family. Her home was wallpapered with photos of all of her loved ones, it was evident family was her pride and joy. Family wasn't just blood to her, her family and her heart beat was Faith Apostolic Church. Founded by her father in 1981 and she and her husband Pastor Marlin Arceneaux were appointed as Pastor in January of 2003. Every baby that came through the door was her baby, she loved deeply and told everyone about her miracle. Plagued with sickness and cancer for years, she never let it stop her from going to church and being there for her family.  Her favorite thing to do was to ride the motorcycle with her husband and sister and brother-in-law in the Smoky Mountains. She truly fought the good fight. She finished her course. She kept the faith. And now, she rests in the presence of the Savior she loved so deeply, leaving behind a legacy of love, faith, and devotion that will continue through generations. She is survived by her husband of 44 years, Marlin Arceneaux; daughters, Blair Partin (Brandon) and Bailey Tisdale (Caleb); sister, Deborah Barber (Phillip); grandchildren, Lexie Bell, Makenzie Bell, Jake Partin, Kenah Tisdale, Asa Tisdale, and Ezra Tisdale; great-grandchild, Aida French.
