Lana Jean Hingle (Stockstill), of New Orleans, LA, born on October 3, 1943, in Nairn, LA, to the late Myrl Lincoln Hingle and the late Joseph P. Hingle, passed away at the age of 78 on February 9, 2022, in New Orleans, LA. She attended Buras High School followed by college at LSU where her love of dance brought her to become a Golden Girl while she earned her degree in liberal arts and math. She then ventured to New York City where she became a stock broker. After her father's passing, she came back to Louisiana to take over the family businesses. She reconnected with her high school love, Lyle Stockstill. Together they co-founded, Torch Inc., a company that built a fleet of pipelay vessels that employed hundreds of families. Lana and Lyle went on to have three daughters and a son. Lana was an unsinkable, quiet force that supported and encouraged strength in all that knew her. Lana was an avid bridge player, shrewd businesswoman, ballet dancer and wonderful friend to many. Of all her accomplishments in life her proudest was that of Mom. She was unconditional in her support of her children and grandkids. She is survived by her children, Lanay, Lylyn, Labree, and Gabriel Stockstill and her bonus children, Shannon and September Stockstill. Also survived by her are sisters Linda Hingle Rhodes and Brenda Joseph Hingle and her five grandchildren, Mila Stockstill, Emi Elan Stockstill, Jocelyn Stockstill Deffes, Prentiss Stockstill and Brielle Stockstill.
