I still can't believe you are gone. Almost 40 years ago we were Lucy and Ethel and you taught me so much about life. Not sure how I would have done it with out you. You are loved and thought about always Lis. Miss you so much !

Lisa was such a loving person. She had a way of making everyone feel welcome,loved and appreciated. Always one to give advice (which at times doubled as the funniest). A one of a kind kindred spirit who will always be loved & missed greatly. My thoughts and prayers to her family.

Very thankful to have been with such an incredible woman, and for the gifts she gave me.
To have been able to share her love with so many wonderful people and to know you saw her heart shine - it is healing my broken heart.

My heart is just broken. I knew Lisa back when she was in nursing school and she and I were best of friends. Besides family she was the only one I would let watch my young daughter Jennifer. And they both loved each other to the moon! My deep condolences to her family! Heaven has received a very special angel. R.I.P. my dear friend

Lisa was our Dir of Nursing at Beechtree Center. She was so thoughtful, and concerned about our staff. She greeted every Resident by their first names. She loved sharing stories and pictures of her four children. She was so proud of them. Her office was always available to us!!! She definitely had The Open Door Policy.
When my Mom passed in Sept of 2015- Lisa would call and or tex me to make sure all was ok with me. She had a HUGE HEART!!!!
GOD BLESS LISA'S FAMILY.
HEAVEN HAS GAINED ANOTHER GREAT SOUL!!!!!

Lisa will truly be missed. She was an amazing nurse and leader. I will never forget all that I learned from Lisa. She was one of my instructors when I was a nursing student and later in my career she was my mentor. I love you Lisa. Brenda Prins RN
