May the God of all comfort sustain your family during the days ahead Psalms 119:76

Sometimes words just cannot explain the feelings you have for someone. I greatly respected Lisa for her faith, her tenacity, her honor, and her love of life with her husband and her kids. Kevin, Katie, I remember babysitting you both. Your mom had such a generous spirit and loved you two so very much. She helped my mother while she was going through her own battle with cancer even though she was still dealing with her own. For that, I cannot thank her enough. My love and my prayers go to you in this time of heartache. May God through his son Jesus Christ, give you the comfort and strength you need at this time.

Dear Wright Family, I am so sorry for your loss, Lisa was one of a kind and so strong. She was a great example for me when I was diagnosed last year and have since recovered, for now. Her resolve to get through her hurdles was so inspiring. Again, so sorry for your loss.
