Theresa Louise Lanier Massey, age 65, of Pollock, Louisiana entered eternal rest on Friday, May 22, 2026.
A graveside service for Theresa will be held at Forest Lawn Memorial Park on Thursday, May 28, 2026, at 11:00 am. Visitation will take place at Gallagher Funeral Home from 9:00-11:00 am.
Theresa is preceded in death by her parents, Carroll E. Lanier and Winifred Chatelain Lanier and her brother, Brian Lanier.
Those left to cherish her memories are sister, Kathy Miller (Ronald) and her brother, Steve Lanier (Amber).
Theresa was a woman who never met a stranger and spent her life caring for others with compassion, kindness, and a servant’s heart. Known as a true “jack of all trades,” she embraced life fully and worked hard in every role she held. She faithfully served for many years as a CNA, dedicating herself to the comfort and care of those in need. She also worked as a cook at Camp Cook, where she shared her warmth and love through meals and fellowship.
Theresa loved people deeply and found joy in helping others. Her caring spirit, strong work ethic, and generous heart touched the lives of many family members, friends, coworkers, and all who had the blessing of knowing her.
She held close to her favorite Bible verse, 2 Timothy 4:7:
“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.”
Though she will be greatly missed, her family finds comfort in knowing she is now at peace in the presence of her Lord and Savior.
May her memory forever live in the hearts of those who loved her.
