Heather Gay Lanier formerly of Pulaski, Tennessee was born on January 6th (in a year she would never tell), daughter of Joyce Edwards and Jimmy Lanier. She attended Richland High School in Lynnville Tennessee, Martin Methodist, and Middle Tennessee State University. On September 30th, 2013 she married the love of her life, Angela Heath. She spent her adult life working at Linebaugh Public Library and The Brentwood Library.

She was preceded in death by her mother Joyce, grandmother Beulah Lanier, grandfather Herschel Lanier, and grandmother Mary Pitts.
