I was stunned to walk in the cemetery while visiting my grandmother and see this ladies name. I was good friends with Karen and Mike. I remember the hardware store they had uptown. She was a great person who had confidence. I admired her as a child, a student, and as an adult. Rest in peace my Spanish teacher.

Chris, Karen, Michael and family. My deepest sympathy of the passing of your mother. I have fond childhood memories growing up on Brown road and all of us having fun as kids on the farm, water fights, hide and go seek, etc. Most of all, I catch myself correcting others with their grammar. Your Mom, did me a favor by correcting mine. My grammar still needs alot of work. Ha ha. I always think of Lisa when it comes to anything grammatical, and I smile. RIP. God Bless you all.
