Kristi Lirette Obituary

Lirette Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show which path to take." Kristi Lynn Lirette went to be with her Heavenly Father on Thursday, May 4, 2016, at the age of 23. Kristi was a free spirited, fearless, adventurous young lady who absolutely lived life to the fullest. Her uniqueness was undeniable. She loved listening to music, hanging out at the beach with family and friends, shopping, her Maw Maw's little peas and bouille pies. She never went anywhere without her adorable little dog Molly. She was born and lived most of her life in Baton Rouge, but spent time in Dallas, San Diego, and New Orleans. Her strength, and determination was as big as her contagious smile and she was always the center of attention. She would want us all to celebrate her and not mourn. She hated sadness and tears. "Kristibug" will be missed but her spirit will live on in all those she ever touched. She is survived by her parents, Brett Lirette and Diana King; step-parents, Krissy Lirette and Michael King; brother, Phillip Lirette and his girlfriend Brooke Meyer; sister, Elena Mizell; step-siblings, Adrionne, Brooks, and Cadie Kusy, Kady and Kyle King, and Shannon Achord; grandmothers, Norma Durham and Brenda Lirette; Godmother, Tiffany Bonvillain and husband Gary; Godfather, Todd Durham and wife Robin; aunt, Bridgette Forstall and husband Trey; uncle, Seve Lirette; and her pet/child, Molly Claire. Kristi was preceded in death by her grandfathers, William Durham and Sam Lirette; and uncle, Jody Lirette. Visiting hours will be held on Sunday, May 8, 2016, at Resthaven Gardens of Memory & Funeral Home, Baton Rouge, LA 70816, from 5:00 pm until 8:00 pm.

My heart skipped a beat upon learning of Kristi's passing. She was one of the most vibrant personalities that ever entered my classroom at BMS. She was in love with learning, and her smile was contagious. Condolences to the family and prayers being offered to ask for strength to get you all through this grief.

Kristi was a special friend of my son Robbie, and to his cousins Chelsie and Michael. I remember her exuberance and adventuresome spirit, leaving an impact on all she met. The holiday that she spent at our house several years ago was filled with laughter and warmth. We will never forget her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this very difficult time.

Kristi was a true inspiration and guiding light. Her warmth and beauty will never be forgotten. Her spirit will always be alive because she truly touched my heart along with so many others and I will never forget your energy. Thank you for visiting me and meeting my daughter Zola, before you moved to Dallas. I'm so glad that she was able to experience carefree spirit and energy. Love and light sweet angel.
