The Picayune Item
CARRIERE —
Preston A. Lott, 61, of Carriere, Miss., went to be with the Lord, surrounded by his family and friends on Sunday, January 6, 2013. Preston was born April 7, 1951.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Dymple and Wilford Lott; aunts, uncles and grandparents.
Preston is survived by: his wife of 27 years, Ann Lott; daughters: Leah, Alys and Katie Lott; sister Phyllis Seal; brother Joel Lott; aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, in- laws; and grandchild, Sophia Cucinello.
Preston loved to eat at Betty K’s and “shootin’ the hoot” with his breakfast friends. Fishing and hunting with his best friends, working in his garden and sharing his fruit were his favorite hobbies. Preston would say, “spending time with his family and granddaughter was better than sliced bread.” Preston had a personal relationship with God and shared his faith with everyone.
He served in the Army for two years during the Vietnam War and worked as a Real Estate Appraiser for 35 years. He never met a stranger and always helped anyone in need. He will be remembered as a witty and loving husband, father and friend with a sense of humor till the end. Many thanks for your sincere comfort and care to Slidell Memorial Hospital and Ochsner’s Hospital in New Orleans, Transplant Team, doctors, nurses and staff.
Visitation will be held on Saturday, January 12, 2013 from 1-2 p.m. at Resurrection Life Church, 795 Memorial Blvd in Picayune. A memorial service will follow at 2 p.m. from the chapel, with Pastor Allen Hickman officiating.
