I had known Lisa was sick but didn't know truly until today that she had died. I always loved talking with her. Her kindness and love always shone through in any conversation we had. I lost my mom when I was young so I send my empathy as well as sympathy and if there is anything I can do ever please let me know . Sincerely and with love, Mary Jo Clark (day care provider in Agassiz neighborhood)

Dear Mike, Emily, and Jake,

I am so sorry Lisa lost her battle with cancer. My thoughts are with you.

Mia and I enjoyed spending many afternoons with Lisa while Jake and Noah played. She was a generous and patient person. I'll miss her.

I am so sorry for your loss. Lisa was a gentle soul with a solid core of love and strength. I was so happy to share the early years of motherhood with her in our mom-baby group. She so adored Emily and Jake and I have no doubt that her love lives on. My deepest sympathies

I was so very sorry to hear of Lisa's untimely death. She was always so energetic and enthusiastic and was a great treasure to everyone, especiallly the seniors, at the Fenway CDC. I know her loss is especially painful for the seniors whom she served so well and who truly loved her in return. My deep sympathies to her family and friends.

Dear Mike, Emily and Jake,
Lisa and I became fast friends when we met. We were usually on the same page about life, politics, love and our kids. So many times I had only to glance her way and she knew what I meant. She was a loving, vivacious, kind,gentle and funny woman. She loved you all so deeply and passionately. I've missed her for a very long time already and will continue to miss her still. None of this is easy, none of this is fair, but time does help. And the things that happen during the passing time will heal. Her love for you will carry far and wide, that can never be taken from you. My deepest sympathy, Roxanne Young

Lisa was an extremely warm and generous person. Those of us who knew her and worked with her, as I did at Fenway CDC, were very fortunate. Lisa turned a basement apartment in the West Fenway into a thriving senior center - a place where young and old alike were welcomed, fed, entertained, educated and attended to. Many Fenway seniors considered Lisa to be their daughter. The rest of us were lucky to call her our friend and colleague.

My sympathies to Mike and to Lisa's children. Thanks you for sharing her with us at Fenway CDC.

Lisa was the person with whom I talked about leading discussions on movies and short stories at the Peterborough Senior Center. She was full of good advice and made it easier, not more difficult. The world is full of good people, but she was in a class of her own.
