Lisa was a great mother in law to me as well as a loving grandmother to our 3 children. I always looked forward to seeing our kids enjoy their time with her. Her sarcastic personality was always good for pulling a smile out of us when we needed it. She will be missed beyond measure by our little family. ❤️
Lisa was my best friend going to be so hard going through without her even though we had our ups and downs we always made up we always stood by each other we always Ed will always love each other
We were shocked to hear of Lisa’s tragic death. She was far too young and had too much life left to live and to give to have this happen now. Somehow we were unaware of her health battle so were shocked and saddened to hear the sad news. Lisa and our girls were cousins and friends. Lisa has been family since before she was born. We are thankful for her life and for her beautiful smile and loving personality. No doubt she had her faults but we never knew any. She was kind, loving and supportive of family and friends. We are thankful for her life her on earth and so glad we could experience some of it with her. We are even more thankful for her faith and for her eternal life in Christ Jesus. Good night dear Lisa. Give our greetings to Marvin and Jack. We’ll see you all in the morning.
Lisa will always be my little bride. I love you baby girl. May God be with your family as they maneuver this world without you, knowing that one day we will all see you again.
I’ve known Lisa for many years. She was a sweet lady. Sending prayers of strength to her family.
Rest In Peace Lisa.
Tom and I are shocked by this heart breaking news. Lisa was a genuine, honest, sweet and Godly lady. We pray, during this time, that all of her friends and loved ones will find peace in Gods promise of her ever lasting life. Lisa is in the Best hands now!! We will see you again Lisa❤️
Brock, Autumn & Family,
