Stacey Fontenot McAllister was called home to be with Jesus on January 28, 2025. She was born at Langley AFB Hospital in Hampton, VA on January 22, 1970. She was raised in Baton Rouge and was a resident of Denham Springs. She was a graduate of Woodlawn High School in Baton Rouge and an active member of Healing Place church in Denham Springs where she and her husband led a group for married couples.
Stacey is survived by her husband of 18 years, Paul Mark McAllister, Father and Stepmother Don and Betty Fontenot, Mother Johanna Melancon, brother Donnie Fontenot (Melissa), sister Tammy LeJeune Landry (Devin), and numerous aunts and uncles, nephews and nieces, cousins and relatives and friends and her beloved fur baby Piper. She was an avid fan of LSU football and baseball, Saints football, and
Chicago Cubs. She loved all animals (especially puppies), frozen coffee and most of all her Lord and Bible study. As one of her beloved nieces said, “She suffered from a chronic illness since she was a baby, but she never complained and had a heart of gold. She always showed up for important things and lived life to the fullest.”
Stacey was preceded in death by her grandparents John Melancon Jr and Bernice Moros Melancon, Donald Fontenot Sr. and Josie Manno Fontenot, TJ Simmons and Juanita Simmons and sister Christi LeJeune Carmouche and Cousin Kristy Fontenot.

Dear McAllister family, on behalf of SandyRun Church in Hattiesburg we share in your sorrow, pray for peace and comfort while holding with you in the faith of our blessed hope.
Standing on this truth, He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.

This is something that wasn’t ever going to happen. My soul aches. My heart aches. I was never going to lose my best friend of 40 years, the godmother of my daughter, the person who I could call at anytime for any reason knowing that she’d make it make sense. Even the memories of our funniest moments in time have left me heartsick, though I know that I’ll get them back.
To Paul and to every member of her family – Ms Johanna 💕, Mr. Butch & family, her little punk brother (love you, D) and his lovely wife and boys, Aunt Cheryl, Uncle Frank, Kevin and his plus one, Kelly and Mr. Skipper/Aunt Leslie, Kelly’s boys, Paul’s family, and everyone else she wholeheartedly loved – and she did – I am sorry for the void this has left. I am sorry for the deep sense of loss that will endure. I’m sorry that no one can make it better. I’m sorry.
As for you, Stace, love you and miss you and always will. Save me a spot 💜
