Wow how time flies, seems like yesterday Lisa and I were cracking jokes in Palmer’s carline waiting for Myles and John Paul. She sure was fun to talk to and was the first person to befriend our family when we arrived from Ohio in 2008. I miss her dearly and often talk to her through prayer, and I know she’s listening. Can’t believe the boys are seniors!!! She will never be forgotten. God Bless Lisa and all of the Dolan and Long clans. Sincerely Douglas Kiley and family.

I heard of Lisa's passing on Facebook of all places, but I'm so glad I am aware. My heart breaks for the loss of a woman who was always larger than life. I'm so sorry for you, and the community. Lisa was always a leader, ahead of her time, and an inspiration. She just "did", has always been, and will always be someone you measure up to. My heart feels for the Dolan and Long families.

So sorry for your loss. I knew Lisa from GAP and I have fond memories of laughing and talking with her.

Lisa was a part-time visual specialist, still in high school, when I began working with her at Gap and Gapkids. There was no doubt then, or ever, that she was truly passionate about Gap and retail. She was very gifted and always strove to provide a great working environment for the employees in her district.

I also remember running into her one Christmas at Target, when I had just gotten word from one of the stores in our market that they weren't going to be able to provide any toys for the critically ill child whose name they had chosen. I had pneumonia, but went to the store to buy the child something, so they would at least have a present under the tree. I saw Lisa and explained to her why I was out, even though I should have been at home. Curtis simply said, "What's on the list?", and he and Lisa purchased several items for that child, even though they had already chosen another child and bought Christmas gifts for that child as well. I'll never forget that generosity.

Curtis, you and Myles will be in my prayers. I am so sorry for your loss.

And He will raise you up on eagle's wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of His Hand.

My sister was the most beautiful person (inside and out) that I have ever had the honer and joy to have in my life. Losing her has and will impact SO many lives. Her passion for family, life, fashion ran deeper than anyone will ever know. Her heart was true and her convictions ran deep. They say blood runs thicker than water but, This was NEVER the case. Lisa WAS AND IS MY SISTER AND THE MOTHER TO THE MOST INCREDIBLE LITTLE MAN IN THE ENTIRE WORLD! We are not supposed to be able to pick our family but, when my brother took his vows to Lisa before God...he blessed our family with one of the greatest gifts that could possible be given. LISA IS MY SISTER- MY BEST FRIEND...AND ALWAYS WILL BE! I LOVE YOU LISA! Forever...Leah Rushing

I worked with Lisa for several years at GAP. We became very close and I enjoyed getting to know how kind and tenderhearted she really was. We shared so much laughter together and that is what I will remember about her. That, and her impeccable style! She was always so proud of her husband and her son and talked about their accomplishments all the time. In loving memory of a wonderful person - I will miss you, Lisa. Curtis, Myles, Mr. and Mrs. Dolan, and family members, I am praying for you all. May God grant you peace and and comfort during this time. Please contact me if there is anything I can do for you.
Love,

I write this with great sorrow and sadness, words cannot describe what a beautiful and kind person Lisa was. She was the best of friends and even a better mother! I will always be grateful to her for being the first person to befriend our family after our move to this area in 2008. She treated my son, John Paul , as her own and Myles took to him like a brother. Just how welcomed and wonderful Lisa made us feel is undescribable, our love for her will be everlasting and our prayers for her sole will endure forever. Curtis and Myles, we love you very much and will never forget the love Lisa has shown to our family over the years. God Bless the Long and Dolan families and may Lisa's sole rest in peace besides God for all eternity, with Love and prayers, Douglas, Elizabeth, John Paul, Margaret, and Quinn Kiley.
