Lisa spent the last half of her life living in Southern California where she met and married Paul Haw and had two beautiful children Gabriella Haw, age 12 and Robert Haw, age 10 whom she loved dearly and was very proud of. Lisa will be remembered by her generous spirit, beautiful smile and her love of the ocean and all animals. In addition to her beautiful children, Lisa is survived by her mother Kay Manning (Jerry) of Purvis, Mississippi, her father Rick Cleland of Prescott, Arizona, her brother John Cleland (Sylvia) of Gilbert, Arizona, her sister Devon Cleland of Prescott, Arizona, as well as her niece and nephews, Maris, Lucas and Rees Cleland, all of Gilbert, Arizona. Lisa is preceded in death by her step-mother, Dawn Owens-Cleland, her maternal grandparents, EJ and Clarice Arnold and paternal grandparents, Archie and Eleanor Cleland, both from Safford, Arizona.

My Deepest condolences go out to Lisa's children, husband, father and loved ones that all loved Lisa so very much. My personal message went to Kay and Johnny as I knew them both very well however now to everyone whom I did not know. Lisa was a beautiful, energetic and warm hearted girl at the time I knew her. She treated me like her blood sister and not the older step sister. My thoughts go out to you all and know that one day we will all be together with Lisa hearing that laugh and seeing that bright and beautiful smile she possessed. Thank you Rick and Kay for allowing me to be a part of your daughters life and bringing her into this world although for such a short time. She was needed in a much greater place and is smiling down on us all. Luv to everyone and may God Bless you! Lisa sleep with the angels and we will meet again.

My condolences to Lisa's family. I worked with her quite some time ago and we did manage to keep in touch off and on over the last several years. She was one of the most good natured people I have ever met and was a good friend. I will miss her very much!

I want go give my condolences to Lisa's family , her children, and husband. I worked with Lisa several years ago, and we stayed in touch after her kids were born and she moved to California. I loved working with her because she was always so positive and funny, and so sweet. She could always make everyone laugh and she was a great friend.
I know she loved her children very much and her family meant everything to her. I will miss you Lisa, I am praying for your family.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Kay and Johnny. I was Lisa's step-sister when Kay and my dad Jim Bigley were married years ago. Although I have not seen Lisa in many years it seems like just yesterday when her, Johnny and I were cleaning, dancing to music and arguing over who had to clean what before dad and Kay got home. Lisa and I talking long walks around the park at night just talking and laughing. Lisa will forever be in my heart and I loved her like a sister. We will meet again one day but until then sleep with the Angels Lisa and know you will forever be loved and dearly missed.

My condolenses to the family. I knew of Lisa from her stepmother Dawn. Dawn had always spoken highly and lovingly of Lisa as child as that was when Dawn and I were in contact. My condolenses also to Rick on Dawn's passing. She was one of the most loving, generous, good heartedpeople I knew. It was my good fortune to have also know Dawn.
