A native of Lafayette and resident of New Iberia, Britani Nicole Gary passed away on Monday, January 30, 2023, at 12:17 p.m. at Calcutta House in Lafayette.

Britani was a fun-loving, spirited young lady. She loved dancing, talking, playing Yahtzee with her Maw. She even kept the score sheet from the last game she would ever play with her Maw, aunts, and uncle. She dearly loved her godchild, Briar. She worked at APM for years and truly fell in love with her co-workers. Her best times were at Easter at her Maw and Poppa’s where the annual volleyball game consisted of a fierce rivalry between the uncles and aunts and the grandchildren. In her younger days, she enjoyed spending time frogging or playing in the boat with Roxie, Wesley, Tayasha, and Josh. Vacations with all of her many families were always enjoyed: cruises, camping trips, beach trips, etc. She loved spending the holidays with all of her cousins: Maya, EJ, Jayd, and Tiffany.

Britani was one of the most beautiful souls. She enjoyed the mission trips with Family Life Church. Every month, she looked forward to meeting with her Freedom Group ladies: Ms. Sheila, Kat, Jennifer and so many more to count. Last but not least, her sisters and brothers meant the world to her. She loved them with her entire soul. On her last full night on this Earth, she had a slumber party in her room with her two brothers and two sisters. She requested they stay with her; her time with them was priceless. She had a few things to ask them and promises she asked them to make. They did and this bond will never be broken.

She wore her heart on her sleeve and never had a harsh word for anyone. She is with Jesus and her Maw now.

Rest in the arms of Jesus, my beautiful Red.
