She cherished that role perhaps a bit too much, as half of her paycheck went right back into the store she loved. Lisa later found her true calling in the banking industry. Her talent and dedication didn’t go unnoticed; Lisa later was promoted as the Portfolio Manager at her branch. 

During her free time, Lisa loved creating art and crafts, jewelry making, photography, scrapbooking and often gifted her loved ones with handmade creations.

Lisa will be remembered for her gentle heart, her infectious smile and selfless spirit.
