Lisa, I only got to know you over the last year working with you at Dr. Bain‘a office. In that short time I realized how you could light up a room with your smile; how you could start up a conversation with our patients and keep it going and make it seem like you had known them forever; how hard of a worker you were; how eager you were to learn to work in the back office with us. I’m so glad we had that time together. My memories of you are too few but will be forever cherished!! Rest In Peace Lisa.
