Lisa McDaniel Obituary

She was united in marriage on September 4, 1998, in Jefferson City to Bobby Lee McDaniel who survives at the home.
Lisa went to grade school at Our Lady of the Snows Catholic School and graduated from Cole R-V Eugene High School.
Lisa spent her career with the State of Missouri Employment Security retiring as the Labor and Industrial Relations Manager.
Lisa's greatest joy and love was being with her family, especially babysitting her grandchildren. She was enjoying her retirement, being with her childhood friends, and watching the St. Louis Cardinals. She loved anything to do with Elvis and was so excited to see the recent movie about his life. Watching her children and grandchildren play sports and being a Jay Band mom for Christopher was pure fun for her.
Lisa's last and final gift of donating her organs for the benefit of others will be long remembered by so many.
