Lance David Stansberry entered into eternal life surrounded by his family on Monday, April 19, 2021, at the age of 51. Lance was the devoted husband of Kristin Englebracht and beloved father of Cameron Stansberry, Chandler Harris (Joseph), and Cole Harris. He is preceded in death by his father, Lawrence Edward Stansberry, Jr., sister-in-law, Ann Connick Stansberry and his mentor, Paul Connick, Sr. He is survived by his mother, Claire Stansberry, his sister, Laurie Bijou (Dalton), and brothers Lawrence Stansberry, III, Lee Stansberry (Jennifer), and beloved nieces and nephews, Larry (Caroline), Collin, Jacob (Maddie), Katie, Madison, Taylor, and Mackenzie.
During his lifetime, Lance was a supervisor for Jefferson Parish for over 15 years before starting as an Arborist for Bayou Tree Service. He was passionate about his work and dedicated to those he worked with. Lance was one of the most respected municipal arborists and will surely be missed by the City of New Orleans and Jefferson Parish Parkway staffs, as well as all of those at Bayou Tree Service that worked for and with him.
Lance’s family would like to thank the nurses, doctors, and staff at West Jefferson Medical Center for their excellent care and attention, especially Dr. Frank Culicchia and Nurse Practitioner Christine Charlotte. They would also like to thank everyone for their prayers and condolences.
Visitation will be held on Monday, April 26, 2021 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm at St. Rosalie Catholic Church, 600 2nd Ave, Harvey, with mass immediately following. Internment will be private.
In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been created in Lance’s honor for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. To make a donation, please visit giftfunds.stjude.org/lance_stansberry
