I met Lisa after she married Dennis. They were our neighbors. She sure loved her animals and so did my grandchildren. They always wanted to ride on the golf cart to feed carrots to the horse. There were cats and dogs and one day a pig. They then wanted to feed the horses and the pig. Lisa was always agreeable she loved life and she was a wonderful neighbor. My prayers and condolences to all of the families that were her family.
