Lisa graduated from Firestone High School in 1980 and graduated from The University of Akron. She then worked in the banking industry for many years. Lisa most enjoyed spending time with her family. Her hobbies included cross stitching, scrapbooking and framing the many family pictures she would take. She also enjoyed puzzles, and of course, watching her “soaps on t.v.”.
