Lisa LIGHT Obituary

Published by Vancouver Sun and/or The Province on May 10, 2012.

LIGHT, Lisa Jo
Died peacefully May 7, 2012 surrounded by her family. Born November 15, 1954, Lisa lived a life full of family, love, compassion, music, wonder, searching and more than her fair share of pain. She was a passionate person who felt everything deeply and fought her demons with courage - and when we laughed together, it was a gift. She leaves behind her beloved son, Laine Light-Jones, sisters Linda and Karen, brothers Peter and Keith, and many loved nieces and nephews. Goodbye dear Lisa - dance like nobody's watching. We love you.

I have a memory of Lisa doing a two handed reel with another dancer and her movements were brilliant. Passionate brilliant and pure of soul. Sympathy to her family.

So sorry to hear of Lisa's passing. I remember laughing so hard and Lisa running around looking for her puffer. She lived life to the fullest and made our Kitsilano neighbourhood full of great memories. Sitting outside on 4th Avenue playing Neil Diamond songs on the guitar. RIP Lisa

At 11 yrs old we were going to start an all girls band and Lisa wanted to play the drums. We would play the Ouja board and giggle at the results of our questions. Lisa had the most beautiful red hair and was fun to be pals with. Memories of our school years (Gordon & Kits High) will never be forgotten. To dear Lisa`s family, my deepest condolences.

This news deeply saddens me, just when I was trying to connect with Lisa, Barb and Louisa and get together to sing another round of Breaking Up Is Hard to Do. I will grieve deeply and remember our childhood. Racing after school to see who could walk the twins.
I always admired you and was proud to be your friend. Where are the years going and why did you leave so soon. I guess we will have to sing that round later Lisa.

My heartfelt condolences to Lisa's son, all of her family & close friends.
Her pain is gone now.
We met at Kitsilano High School & I'll never forget her gorgeous mane of red hair, admired & envied by so many of her fellow students.
