Lisa's kind, vibrant personality was evident from a young age, and she lived to take care of the people she loved. She had the unique ability to make the people in her life feel special and valued. Her generosity knew no bounds, and she gave selflessly to all who crossed her path.

It was no surprise when she met and married the love of her life, Michael Pappas Jr. Together, their life was filled with joy, laughter, and an abundance of love.

Entrepreneurial and creative, Lisa shared her gifts generously throughout her life, and her well-timed sense of humor never failed to make her friends and family smile. She had an appreciation for beauty and a love of travel, and her annual Christmas baked ziti deliveries were legendary. She had impeccable style and a talent for creating beautiful, welcoming spaces. Her presence brought warmth to every situation.

Lisa is survived by her devoted husband, Michael, and a family who adored her. She was preceded in death by her mother, Janice. She is lovingly remembered by her father, Robert Palmiero, and his wife, Lynda; her brother, Ian Palmiero (Cortney); and her stepchildren, Michael Pappas III (Eleni) She leaves behind her cherished grandchildren, Michael, Alana, Paulina, and John, along with aunts, cousins, and so many friends.

We will miss you, honey.
