Just learning of this moment, and as with Chuck Wagner,
I too had the privilege to have grown up with Lisa graduating with her from both Covington and OLCHS. God Bless you Lisa and your family!

The perfect blossom is a rare thing. You could spend your life looking for one, and it would not be a wasted life.
Lisa was my perfect blossom...

My condolences to Lisa's family. I hope you find comfort knowing your daughter was highly regarded and loved by many friends. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
I was privileged to have grown up with Lisa graduating with her from both Covington and OLCHS. I always appreciated her kindness and sense of humor. She was always a class act and a sweetheart.
A fond memory I'll never forget is dancing with Lisa at our 20-year high school reunion.

My condolences to the Bukowski/Pollard families. Coaching Lisa at OLCHS was one of the highlights of my career. My favorite memory was the conference meet in '88. We needed to win the 4 x 4 to be champions. Lisa was the anchor and even though she just finished the mile only 15 min earlier, she held off Sandburg's best runner to seal the victory. She was so talented! Lisa, Rest in Peace.

I wish I could be there to support you guys in your grief - baaahhhhhh, the tyranny of distance. May the memorial service be as joyous as such things can be, tempered with such incredible sadness. I wish I had gotten to know Lisa better in her short time. That was my loss entirely. My heart and hugs go out to all family members and friends; my thoughts are with you. Bec Reed, and wee Alice Linton-Smith.

Gods Garden
God looked around his garden
And found an empty place
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest
Gods garden must be beautiful
He has the very best
He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again
He saw the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb
So he closed you weary eyelids
And whispered, "Peace bethine"
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home
