Her family will receive family and friends at Thomas Funeral Chapels, 4545 Lake Avenue, on Tuesday August 4th from 11AM-12pm with a Celebration of Life at 12pm.
Lisa lived a life filled with laughter, love, and the simple things that brought her joy. She loved spending time at her cottage in the Thousand Islands, dancing to country music, baking, cooking, gardening, and watching Jeopardy!, Wheel of Fortune, Antiques Roadshow, and Gilmore Girls. She enjoyed playing cards, coloring, visiting the casino, cheering on the Pittsburgh Steelers, and teasing those she loved with her signature way of "busting balls." She adored her dogs and granddog, loved being a grandma, and cherished every moment with her grandkids. She deeply loved her parents, siblings, family, and friends, and the love she shared with her husband was the foundation of her life. Lisa's greatest joy was the people she loved, and the memories she created with them will be cherished forever.
