Lisa was legendary for her love of God's creatures and wonders. She was truly a loving and humble person who had no boundaries in her faith in the lord and her trust in mankind. She never met a stranger and always had a cheerful smile for everyone. She was so full of life and always so gracious and kind ….and especially for her wonderful and committed caregivers. It should not surprise any of you who knew her that she was always the "favorite patient" …. always with a great twinkle in her eye. She was a brave crusader who never gave up the fight and encouraged so many others in their own battle.

Her most treasured roles that gave her boundless laughter were being Grandma Lisa, Nana and Mrs. Claus in the New Madrid Christmas Parade
