Lisa Nicole Ricciardi Fox passed away I Roswell, New Mexico on March 31, 2025. A celebration of life will be held on Tuesday, April 8, 2025, at 1 pm at West Funeral Home Chapel.
Lisa Nicole Ricciardi Fox was born to Tommy Riccardi and Marlene Como on March 22, 1972, in Brooklyn, NY. She was raised in New York before relocating with her mother and stepfather, Frank Candido to California in the early 1980's after her father Tommy's passing. She graduated from high school in Thousand Oaks, CA. She fancied skipping school to go to the popular Paradise beach café where she met several famous movie stars, which began her dream of becoming an actress. She took many acting classes, and was a jack of all trades; however, she was truly a master at making stiff drinks. Lisa loved cooking Italian food, listening to music, finding new creative hobbies to sink into temporarily, having passionate disagreements, and loving where she could. She could be your friend, enemy, and mother all in the same day. She always had a heart to help others. Lisa was happiest, surrounded by family, even if you were unofficially adopted into the family. She made friends everywhere she went and would always be there for others in times of need. She lived for her children, Brittany, Shawn and Alexa even during her own trials. She would love fiercely, and passionately. She is preceded in death by her daughter Alexa Fox and parents Frank and Malene Cadido. Lisa is survived by daughter Brittney and husband Barry Carlsen and son Shawn Brothers, as well as grandchildren Landon Hollen, Logan Hollen, Livi Cunningham and Bennett Carlsen.
