Lisa
Mel Gordon just called to let me know that he wanted everyone to know that Lisa passed away at 1pm today. She was in no pain, he said it was the first time in seven years she did not have a wrinkle or furrow on her face. She was looking out the window and looking at the outdoors that she loved. When Mel is ready he will post more and he is still here for all of us. Her loss will be felt greatly but her love and light will always be with us.

Very sad news, indeed. Lisa truly was "love and light" to us, her "her2 family". Thanks Joy and Christine for passing this along so quickly.

Lisa I will miss you, your encouraging and caring words. You were always there for all of us, sharing victories, setbacks, and love.

Rest in peace, love, and light Lisa

Chris
