Clark," "Clarky," "Mr. G," "Dad," or "Pops," will be remembered for … never missing Sunday Mass; tasting everything at least once, even if you don't want it; always vote, and when you vote, always vote Republican.

Gaudin died in Baton Rouge at the age of eighty-eight. His obituary sums up his life, accordingly:

 

If you're older than 40 and know something about Louisiana politics, you may know about Edward Clark Gaudin, who entered eternal life on Thursday, March 19, 2020. This eighty-eight year old man, "Clark," "E. Clark," "Clarky," "Mr. G," "Dad," or "Pops," will be remembered for … never missing Sunday Mass; tasting everything at least once, even if you don't want it; always vote, and when you vote, always vote Republican. He was a principled man, for sure, and it's one of his remarkable attributes. … He served Our Lady of Mercy Catholic Church for more than fifty years as parent, lector, usher, and eucharistic minister. He joined Kiwanis and was a captain of a Manresa Retreat House weekend. He will be remembered for his snazzy suits, sweet cologne, and love of figurines. Nevertheless, politics was his passion.{{ref name=obit>{{cite web|url=https://obits.theadvocate.com/obituaries/theadvocate/obituary.aspx?n=edward-clark-gaudin&pid=195765624|title=Edward Gaudin obituary|publisher=''The Baton Rouge Advocate''|date=March 23, 2020|accessdate=March 24, 2020}}</ref></block quote>
