Lisa,
We met & became the best of friends in 1992 at Nordic Track...
When I won that brand new convertible, we we're inseparable! So many cruises, parades, & so much fun! I promoted you shortly after my promotion bcuz I needed strong leadership, a tender/caring/understanding gal just like you to work with the Reps! Even after the closing of facility, we remained in each other's s. I took you & Bo in to come live with me. That very special Xmas, when I found myself alone, you invited me to your family holiday in Nicollet. You gave the BEST hugs, the BEST support & I watched as your unconditional love for Matt & your grandbabies was absolutely priceless! You, my friend, will forever be in my mind, my soul as my sister. That's how much you meant & mean to me Lisa. I didn't know anything about this until Matt got in touch with me in February. It's probably for the best bcuz I will never say goodbye to you!
You are free now sweetie, I cherish our memories & I will see you soon!

Thinking of you Sam and Matt. This is a terrible thing to have to go through. She was too young. I hope you will call me if you need anything. I know you do not know me. She had a big heart and was always smiling. I am sure you know what she wants for you both. Go get it. With love. Nancy Swart
