Publish in a newspaper

Lisa White, a beloved resident of Highland Lakes, passed away on November 22, 2025.

Born and raised in the Bronx, New York, Lisa was one of three children welcomed into the family of Dennis Joseph White, Sr. and Marlene Bucks. She made New Jersey her home around 2009, where she built a life filled with the simple joys she cherished most. Lisa had a deep love of reading, relaxing with her favorite reality TV shows, and discovering new movies. She found great joy in the kitchen, where cooking became one of her passions. Gardening also brought her peace, offering her a quiet and rewarding escape. Above all, Lisa's happiest moments were spent at the beach, surrounded by her family and those she loved most.

Lisa is lovingly survived by her children, Taylor Grishaber, Michael Grishaber, and Thomas Grishaber; and her brothers, Edward and Dennis

White; she was predeceased by her parents, Dennis and Marlene White.

She will be remembered for her warmth, kindness and the deep love she held for her family.

Visitation will be held from 4-8 PM on Wednesday, December 3 at Scanlan's. A funeral service will take place at 7:45 pm to conclude visitation. Cremation will be private.
