Lisa was a longtime friend.  I first met her in 1967. We were in seventh grade together. Nearly all the same classes. Ours turned into a lifelong friendship.  We shared the same classload and social structure until graduation in '73. We drifted apart some after that. But we came back togeyher over the following years. Lisa and I rejoined and I'm sorry to say that while I appreciated our relationship,  in looking back. Maybe I didn't give it enough.  I last saw her about 4 or 5 years ago. Im so saddened by her loss and send my deepest condolences to her family.  Lisa will be missed.

I just was informed of Lisa's passing.  My deepest condolences to her family.  Lisa and I worked together and it was clear that her family was her heart.  She was always smiling.  May the perpetual light shine upon her and may she rest in peace.  

Lisa explained to me over 12 years ago that she was on a mission. The mission was to get a program like Family Promise up and running to help homeless families.  This not a light wish! This was a major part of who she was. She worked passionately towards its fulfillment. She succeeded. I will always remember our talks. I wish the best for her children, grandchildren and brother. I am definitely a better person fro. knowing her. Rich Kelly

Lisa was an amazing person to work with and her energy and positive attitude had an effect on me and others.

I wish my condolences to her family.

My sincere condolences to the family.  I did not know Lisa personally but I did know her through her Daughter, Kathy and she was a loving, caring and such a very loved mother and grandmother. I know there won't be a day that goes by that she will be in your thoughts with everything you do and she will be with you always.  Love, Julie  Ramirez

Living across the state it was hard to stay in touch but I'm so glad to have been able to reconnect with Aunt Lisa and all of my other cousins in my adult years. So many fun memories of her and her family and their visits to Brownsville and our visits to Levittown growing up. God Bless, Charlie 

There are people that come across your path in life that shine brighter.  That live for the ability to give to others.  That put their needs second.  That walk into a room and you know angles are close by.  Lisa is now with those angels and I am confident she is helping lead them to help others.  For the years I got to work with Lisa at Family Promise, I saw a passion around doing for others like one doesn't often get to experience.  She will be missed by so many but her legacy of helping others will live on for decades to come.

Lisa was a very special person.  She always had kind and encouraging words for me, and priceless wisdom that I will hold on to forever.  I will miss her heart-warming smile and contagious laugh. The energy she put into making life better for less fortunate people was absolutely incredible.  Lisa was a super hero. My heart goes out to her loving family.  Whenever she shared stories about you at the office, her face always lit up with that big, amazing smile of hers.  It was easy to see that she loved you all so much and was so proud of all of you.  Please know that Lisa has influenced many, and while she is now in heaven, the goodness that she spread will always be here on earth. 

It was a pleasure to have known a wonderful Person like Lisa..May God Bless you in this time of need  

I am so sorry to hear of Lisa's passing. My heartfelt condolences to all her family and friends. We worked together at Merrill and BlackRock. She was a wonderful coworker and friend and will be missed by all who knew her.

To the family of Lisa my prayers are with you.  Her smile would light up a room and her heart just as bright.

I had the privilege of working with Lisa at BlackRock.  Lisa was a hard worker - many days last to leave the office, kind and funny.  She spoke fondly and with pride of her family.  We will miss her smile in Princeton.  Sending strength and love to you as you navigate these days ahead.

I am so sorry for your loss. Lisa was such a light and one of the kindest, most genuine people I know.  She always had the time for you and was there whenever you needed anything.  Lisa- my dear soul sister— you will be so missed but glad to know you will be with Phil again. Blessings to you on your next journey my friend and love to all who knew you and are feeling this loss. 

I am so sorry hear about this.  Lisa was a kind and funny person to work with.  She will be missed.  May she rest in peace and may her family have only happy memories.

Our thoughts remain with you and your family at this time. We are honored by the trust and confidence you have placed in us during this difficult time.- The Staff of James J. Dougherty Funeral Home
