Lisa Jackson Obituary

Lisa C. Jackson Was born on April 26, 1964. She left us on May 1, 2011. Lisa has given us memories to cherish and footprints in our souls which will last forever. She had the most beautiful soul and she shared this with all who met her. Lisa was luminous. She lit up every room she walked into and the light lasted long after she left. Lisa lived life. She could be fearless with her adventurous nature and calm in the face of darkness. Lisa will be forever remembered for her infectious laugh and her endless love for her family. Lisa always said she would know her soul mate the instant she met him. And she was right. From the minute she saw Allen she knew he was the one. Her love for him was timeless. Allen felt the exact same way about her. We will all feel this loss for an eternity but we will see each other again. Lisa leaves so many behind. Her husband Allen, children Mandy and Justin, grandchildren Jace and Aly and her prize refugee dogs. She has three sisters, Sharon, Laura and Randy and one brother, Paul, many nieces and nephews, cousins and uncles. Uncle Leroy Kennedy who she loved so much became her solace after Mom died. Lisa had numerous friends, too many to name she loved so much. Lee was her oldest and dearest friend. Her sister-in-law, Diena became her voice after Lisa passed. Lisa. We will miss you more than our hearts can understand. There will be a viewing from 1:00PM to 5:00PM on May 6, 2011 at Powers Funeral Home in Puyallup, WA.

I was shocked and saddened to read of Lisa's passing. I knew her from the time I was a part of Diena's family in the early '90's. I will remember her smiling and laughing at the many gatherings we were all at and the comfort she & I would give to each other during difficult times/losses at these get-togethers. I send my comforting prayers and wishes to Allen and all of his extended family.
RIP, Lisa. Love, Ellen (Seidel - formerly Wasson)

Laura, Randy, Sharon, Paul, and The Jackson Family,
I wish that I had some kind of magical words, that would take away the pain and sorrow you're going through, but I dont. Laura & I have been bestfriends since grade school, and Lisa was just a baby then. All my memories of her, are filled with smiles, laughter, happiness and the fastest talking kid, I ever heard tell a story without even taking a breath (we'd have to stop her, so Laura & I could catch up.) She was a great kid, and a very Beautiful Lady! I will forever love and miss Lisa. That face, her brown eyes, and her beautiful smile will light up the Heavens, just as the other angels do! I also want you to know that you are always in my thoughts and my prayers.

With All My Love,
Judy

To the family of Lisa I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I have known Lisa since 2000 when I joined local 242. I worked side by side with her a lot over the last decace on many jobs. She was always friendly, helpful, very hard working, and easy on the eyes. I'll miss her. She never had it easy in construction but always proved she deserved to be there. Sorry for your loss Allen.

What is FOREVER? What is a LIFETIME?

Anytime those words came into play for me, Lisa was a part of them. We have been friends FOREVER and a LIFETIME. I loved her with all my heart. We experienced everything together. Every major event, every love, every loss and a lot of joys from the time we were seven and eight years old. We had more crazy one-liners and inside jokes than anyone could imagine. None of them seem so funny without her. I hope my dear friend has found her peace. I will miss her FOREVER and remember her for the rest of my LIFETIME.

Lisa & Jace.

Lisa was in my life since I can remember. When I was three I was the flower girl in her and Allen's wedding. She's been such a huge part of my life that I considered her my aunt. She was always so understanding and accepting of everything. She always made me laugh. I remember when my parents bought me my first car, I took it over to show her and she immediately wanted to check how much air I had in my tires and get them filled up! She's taught me and shown me so many things. It's hard to accept that she's gone. I'm going to miss her more than words can explain. She was such a beautiful person inside and out. God just gained one beautiful angel.
