Lisa Hess, 62, passed away Jan 6, 2023 after courageously battling breast cancer. As a mother, grandmother, and wife, Lisa was a strong, warm, and gentle woman who loved her family fiercely. Lisa's selflessness and compassion spilled into her 40 plus year career as a nurse, most recently working in Radiation Oncology at Riverview Medical Center.

Lisa's infectious generosity and kindness will continue to be admired by all who knew and loved her dearly. Lisa is survived by her husband Jeffrey Hess, her son Andrew (Kate) Hess, two daughters, Taylor Hess and Cassie Hess, her sister Debra (Joseph) Buragina, and her brother Donald (Patricia) Cruciani. Lisa is also survived by her two grandchildren, Rory and James Hess, whom she adored greatly.

Friends and family are invited for a Memorial Gathering on Sunday, January 8th, from 12PM to 3PM at Thompson Memorial Home, 310 Broad St., Red Bank, N.J. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Lisa's name to Kathy's Kids Foundation. We kindly request donations to kathyskidsfoundation.org (https://kathyskidsfoundation.org).
