Miss Descant, age 10, passed away on January 3, 2019.
Brieanna was someone who left an impact on everyone’s life. She was a genuine and caring person. She loved to sing and was always full of life. She had a love for cheerleading, as she was always cheering, even teaching her younger sister Skyler, different routines. With our baby girl Brienna gone, it will definitely change us but we know she is our angel now. She will be greatly missed. She touched the lives of everyone she contacted through the hugs and smiles she freely gave, even if they were a stranger.
Those left to cherish her memory include parents, Derrick Descant (Lakin) of Effie, Ashly Leitch of Marksville; one brother, Drake Descant of Effie; three sisters, Kassidy Descant of Marksville, Skyler Daigrepont of Marksville, Dakota Descant of Effie; paternal grandparents, Pastor Eric Descant and wife Karen of Marksville; paternal grandmother, Nora Descant of Hessmer, maternal grandparents, Ken and Karen Dauzat of Marksville, Gary and Carmen Leitch of Costa Rica and aunt, Miranda Descant of Marksville.
