Lisa and family, so sorry we have lost on of the sweetest persons on this earth. I know with her sharp wit and kindness that she helped many people. Can you imagine all the experiences she had with all kinds of people coming through Shoemaker´s? One thing I do know is that she handled every situation with a grace that might be
lost but hopefully is a goal for future generations. We will miss you Dort! You were a person who always gave kindness first!
