Later in life after giving birth to two sons, she decided to increase her knowledge and abilities as she attended cosmetologist trade school in Beaumont, Texas. Lasonny’s gifts and talents were in helping others enhance their visible look and took great joy in giving to others.
Lasonny was raised in the church at an early age, she was baptized through the submerge of water.

Olive Missionary Baptist Church under the late Rev. Dr. R.J. Revels, Jr., and youth director Minister C. Revels.
Later in life, she moved to San Antonio and enrolled in the home and joined Victory Gospel Chapel where She served until the Lord called her to rest from her labor under the guidance of the late Bishop Donnie Banks, and presently Prophetess Jackie Banks (Spiritual Mother). Lasonny always had a bible, and peppermints with her no matter where she went. She loved the Lord and would brighten up with a humongous smile as she would discuss the goodness of Jesus with everyone. Lasonny was a young lady that had a vision ever present before her. She was a giver from the heart of compassion and loved to cook. Lasonny’ s talent consisted of her being hands on to operate.
When she saw her family arrive from Southeast Texas to her residence, a glow and smile as big as New York would cover her face. Lasonny loved people and worked with customer service.
