My Sincere Condolences to the family. I `am So Sorry for the loss of your love One. May you find Comfort in your Beautiful heart and treasured every memory that holds a special place in Your love ones heart, may God give You the strength to endure this difficult Time, and continue to bless your love ones. Genesis 2:7; 3:19).

I´ll do my best to pass on this fond memory of Lisa. This happened many years ago when we had a couple of boisterous toddler/kids and we were visiting Lisa and Carl during the day. Somehow the discussion got around to a "totaled" loveseat and I remember Lisa retelling the saga of the demise of the loveseat. ( It had to do with energetic kids and I was very sympathetic as I had my own daily "near misses"...But the best thing was her smile and laugh at the end of the tale along with the tilt...

I'm very saddened to hear of Lisa's passing. We met when we both lived on 5th Avenue about 30 years ago. Although we moved away not long after that I would run into her at the MAC and she was always so kind and genuine. The world was a better place because of her.

I’m so saddened to have come across Lisa’s Obituary. Lisa & I were very very close friends in High School like sisters. We were quite different from each other in politics & religion but nonetheless none of that mattered. We just got in so well. What I loved about her was her quit wit, & quite a humble kind of wit. She had the most infectious big smile which was real, not put on like many young women at our age. She was a very very real person who said exactly how she felt but with charm &...

My condolences. She was such a special lady! I miss so many things but her laugh, wit and smile will remain as my lasting memory of her. Lisa i know the last year was tough and i know you're in a great place watching over (and commenting) Carl and your kids. God Bless You...you were a great soul that was taken way too soon.

Carl, Madeline, Chase and Katherine Deepest condolences to the entire family. It has been some time since we were all on the Mountain together, great memories that we all have with your Mum we will cherish forever. Love the Blacks Robert, Sara, Willa and Eleanor

Lisa was wonderfully opinionated, a solution-seeker, and a problem-solver. I loved the way she raised her kids to be fiercely independent, her ability to socialize in the highest circles yet remain genuinely down to earth, her interest in other people's perspectives and ideas, and her and Carl´s hospitality. I also admired the way she valued relationships and worked for equal opportunity for all. The world is a better place because of Lisa and I am fortunate that she was a part of our lives.

Von,
May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

William O'Kief & family
