Thoughts and prayers to the Lisee family. I had the privilege to work with Joe at Mallon Chevrolet. There are no words to describe what a wonderful person and gentleman Joe was. Always a smile and never a bad word to say about anyone. Joe blessed all who knew him with his presents. May you rest in peace and now we will know you will be looking over all of us from above.

God certainly has gained a special Angel, as Pep was truly an Angel on Earth. For the many years I've known him, he always had kind words for everyone. His smile was contagious. Never heard him complain, always being a gentle soul. Now it is his time for eternal life, free from any pain he encountered on Earth. Rest Easy, your job on Earth is over, and rest in Heaven as you are now reunited with those that passed before you. My deepest sympathy to everyone in the family. Remember the great memories of him to get through your darkest hours. Let your Faith lead you along the way through this difficult time. He will be missed by all that knew him and love ❤ him. My life is better by knowing Pep.
