Our sweet Lisa(Sweets)! We are in awe of your grace and patience over the last year. It is a beautiful legacy you have left your children about how to weather the storms of life. You stayed upbeat and positive and retained your sense of humor through the roughest of days. You became almost childlike as many do when preparing to meet our Father in Heaven. It was so sweet to witness. The void your children feel is a testament to your value as a Mother. You are a talented writer and poet who has blessed others with your words. You could calm ANY baby with your gentle spirit. You remind us all of our dear Mother so much! It was like having her in the room again. You really are two peas in a pod. Your twin sister will be a better person having cared for you near the end. It was a sacred experience we will not soon forget. You have served your Heavenly Father faithfully as a relief society and primary counselor and helped to touch so many lives that way. Your life’s purpose was to benefit others through small, simple acts each day. You knew when to speak and when to stay quiet, not an easy trait for most. Your children, Bree(Heena) Erik(Oogie), and Auri(Nuggle) will miss your presence so much but we are grateful you’ve promised to visit. We know you will still be watching Auri dance! Thanks to the many family members who helped with your care. To your stepson Oliver(Ollie) and your spouse, Anthony for the nightly visits and their efforts to satisfy your food cravings. Also, Hannah and Nathan, for their desire to make you more comfortable. To Anthony and Gavin; You are great Dads! Lisa knows you will honor her memory by lifting up and embracing your children in her absence. We are sure you will have her trust and help. Lisa is the fourteenth of fifteen children. She is preceded in death by her parents and four brothers, her grandparents, in-laws and many others too extensive to include here. We smile when we imagine the reunion she is having with so many loved ones.
Funeral services will be held at the Angel Park Ward in Kaysville, 205 S. Angel Street on Wednesday, August 24th at 1:00 pm. A viewing will be held prior to the funeral the same day from 11:00-12:30. Interment at the Bountiful City Cemetery.

My sister, my twin, my better half. I just got you back and now you’re gone. Laying next to u in the early morning hours talking reminded me so much of our childhood days. I awake each day right now feeling like I can’t breathe. We’ve seen enough death by now that I know this will pass but this one feels a little different. Please help me guide your sweet children. I know u see now how much u mattered to so many and I’m so glad. Pull some strings and visit soon! I’ll be waiting….
I am so sad to read about this! To Loni, Mark, Leslie, Ted, and the other siblings, I am so sorry for your loss. I very much enjoyed teaching Lisa and Loni piano, and getting to be with them for those years. I hope your memories and faith will sustain and comfort you.
Most of my memories of lisa are as a unit with Loni, rather than 2 separate people. I worshiped the twins when I was little copying outfits and trying on their drill team uniforms, and trying to get my hair real big, but my dad wouldn’t let me use that much hair spray, he always claimed the twins were flammable. I thought they were so cool with their personalized lisence plates. As an adult I envied Lisa’s relationship with Bre, they were close and spent so much time together and seemed to share the same values. Even being lucky enough to have a teen daughter post pictures of you together on social media, I could only wish for that with my girls. I love you and I’ll miss your messages on Facebook and encouraging words when I was feeling down. I’m so sorry Bre, Eric, and Auri. Our family must be needed for something important in heaven because they all go too soon. Xo
I certainly didn’t know Lisa as well as others, but I have a small sliver of time, waaaay back in high school where I experienced her kindness and saw her soft heart and words that let me know she knew the proximity of God and where she wanted to go.
It stood out to me. The memory seems so small but stands out so big.
That tells me people can leave a lot when they just practice love.
Perhaps it’s the kindest of people that make the most impact on us, even if it was a small moment in high school.
Lisa’s thoughtfulness happened, and I have this memory to share and take forward with me.
I hope to practice those slivers of love like Lisa, to honor her and create a memorable life like she did.
Dearest Lisa, I already miss you so much! I remember our days in elementary school, we thought we were the 3 musketeers and performed in the talent show 🙂 I loved that we spent many hours sometimes in your house, just visiting and playing in the park with your daughter and my granddaughter. You made me laugh and there was always a sweet spirit around you. I have so many fond memories that I’ll enjoying thinking on over the years. I look forward to the day I will see you again. Until then watch over me. Love you, Kelly
Sending you all my deepest sympathy. I have such beautiful memories of all the years we worked together at Reagan Outdoor Advertising. Lisa would receive such beautiful roses, and we would work together every day to keep them fresh. She was such a loving and caring person, and she excelled in everything she did. She was loved by all, especially me. Best wishes and kind thoughts to her all her children and family.
Lisa, I can’t even get a hold of you being gone. It just doesn’t seem real. You and I did not agree on many things, but when I found out you were gone, all of that went right out the window. At the end of the day, none of it matters and I’m sorry. Love you my longtime friend. You will be terribly missed. To her children, Anthony, Loni, and family… I am so sorry for your loss. Sending love and light your way!
Oh Lisa there are things we experienced together and silly secrets you know about me that no one else does. You helped me with my babies and loved them like your own. Sometimes we laughed so hard together that we snorted and cried. Dozens of Oreos eaten, hundreds of episodes of “Days of Our Lives” watched together, dancing to Whitney Houston, talking about our relationships, being pregnant at the same time, practicing make up, wearing the same perfume, and staying up until the wee hours of the morning.
I will never forget you Buddy Sis. Rest in the peace of God.
Loni, Ted, and Anthony, I am so sorry to hear about Lisa’s passing. Even though we really didn’t hang out together, I’ve known all of you since elementary school. Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers. May Lisa rest in peace.

I met Lisa at work. I was her manager at Entrata. We quickly became friends. She exuded a warmth and kindness that seems to be rare in this world now a days. She was there for me during my hardest trials and days and I for hers. Lisa and I loved to laugh and make jokes about certain government leaders. We loved to share funny memes and gifs at work just to make each other smile. Lisa became one of my greatest friends so quickly. I am so blessed that I was able to have her in my life even for such a small part of hers. She shone so brightly and was so loving. I knew I could trust her with my deepest secrets and most of all I knew she loved me. The world is a little less bright today without her light and joy! I will miss her dearly!
I still wake up every day in shock. You have been a big sister to me. I love you more than words can say and will miss your sweet spirit. And I’ll missing fighting with everyone on FB with you defending our conservative values! LOLLLL. Families are together forever.
I am so sorry to hear about Lisa, My thoughts and prayers go to all of you siblings! Our families were so close in our younger years and we share so many memories of our youth in the Liberty Park area! God Bless each of you during this time of reflection! Matt Margetts
Leslie – So sorry to hear of your loss – I do remember your sister when visiting your home several times before my mission – May you have the peace that is promised by our Savior – Todd
Bless you! Has been bitter – with heaven’s mercies, miracles and sweetness. Hope all is happy and well with you and your precious family. Thank you for your outreach.
These last few days have been difficult. I will miss our late night talks and games like Words with friends…you always beat me????
I loved how you were authentically you. You stayed true to your beliefs and values even when not a popular opinion.
I was in awe how positive you were during this difficult time. A ray of sunshine!
You always supported me during my marriage,the divorce, my health struggles and recently with my school and business.
Your words of encouragement and insight to my gifts I will always remember and cherish.
My heart hurts but I am happy you are no longer in pain and dealing with all the struggles you went through.
I Love you my dear friend Lisa ❤
Three years. I did so much better this year but there are still days where (WHAM!) it hits out of nowhere. Thx for the many hugs you’ve sent thru different avenues. I got each one and they are reminders of the many souls “upstairs” who are counting on me. I have managed to swim while drowning in grief. Our separation will be temporary but it still feels finite. Help me help those you love so much. I’m trying so hard for you. What a gift to know you are HOME!
