Lisa Sparks Obituary
Lisa Malenfant Sparks, a lifelong resident of Nashua, NH, passed away on April 26, 2023, at Courville at Nashua after a long battle with multiple sclerosis. She was born on April 3, 1962, a daughter of Donald and Rita (Claveau) Malenfant.
Lisa graduated from Nashua High School in 1980 and went on to work as an administrative assistant at Sanders/Lockheed Martin for many years until she retired due to her disability from MS. Despite her illness, Lisa never lost her passion for life and enjoyed watching movies and doing crafts in her free time. She loved spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren, who brought her so much joy.
Lisa will be deeply missed by all who knew her. She is survived by her daughter, Kelli Shaw and her husband Corey of Bedford, NH; her mother, Rita Malenfant of Nashua, NH; her sisters, Deb Day and her husband Richard of Manchester, NH, and Tina Meyer and her husband Darren of Cape Cod, MA; her grandchildren, Claire, Leo, and Bonnie Shaw; and her best friend, Sue Raisanen. She was predeceased by her father, Donald Malenfant.
A Memorial Gathering to celebrate Lisa's life will be held from 5-7PM on Tuesday, May 9, 2023, at the Cremation Society of New Hampshire, 243 Hanover Street, Manchester, NH.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Lisa's name to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society https://www.nationalmssociety.org/To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
