Ariana Faith Theriot, a resident of Houma, passed away on Monday, November 3, 2025 at the age of 13.
Ariana was the strongest, bravest, sweetest light of our lives. She faced every day with courage, love and a spirit that inspired everyone who knew her. Though her time here was far too short, her impact and her love will stay with us forever. Despite her diagnosis she always encouraged everyone around her with her positivity. Ariana brought light, laughter and love into every moment and her memory will live on forever in our hearts. She had a strong relationship with the Lord and now has her wings. She will continue to guide us with her faith.

She was reunited with her great-grandparents, Louis "Bo" Massey, Helen & Lee Ellender, Callin & Ozite Theriot and Mary Russell; aunt, Rebecca Byrd; and uncle, Dana Theriot Jr.
