Lisa was like a member of my family. I will miss her smile and laugh sitting around the dining room table at my house. She left us much too soon, but, thankfully she left us with memories that will continue to make us smile. May her memory be a blessing.

I will miss Lisa very much. She was someone I could talk to and give advice. God walked into his garden and picked the most beautiful rose.

Love,

It's been a week, and it's still hard for me to believe such an energetic, passionate and vital person is gone from my life. As a tribute everyone should play a round or two of bingo and then have a wonderful dinner out with good friends! Lisa will be very, very missed by many people.
