Lisa was everything. Mom to Taylor McKinstry and Asia Melanson – and heart bestie to both. Mother to fur-baby Kenny and the late fur-baby Georgia (2020). Grandma to Layla McKinstry. Daughter and burst of life to proud parents Leigh Landry (nee Reid) and the late Jim Landry (2022). She was Loreli’s (Dan Morden) first friend and only sister and Jamie’s (Melissa Johnson) birthday twin and big sister (both Sep. 2 but two years apart). Quirky and awesome Aunt to Maggie, Rian, Tristan (Joana), and Kristopher Sepers, and Nick and Reid Landry. We are all in shock and disbelief and are still unaware that we are to continue without you. You will be missed greatly by all your extended family: Aunt ‘Ninny’ (Lynne Johnson) and Uncle Lee, Lori Johnson, Aunt Betty Anne, Aunt Mary, Valerie MacNeill, Aunt Ruth and Uncle Hans, Michael and Gabriela Nonchen, Erika and Luke Cruckshank, Uncle David and Aunt Carol, Alice and Jason Rende, Aunt Sue and Mike D’Amico, Uncle John, Uncle Peter and Janina, Richard Landry, Meagan Landry and Ken Sharpe, Sarah Joelle Love, Rob and Sharon Landry, Uncle Wayne (2012) and Aunt Bonnie, Uncle Bill and Aunt Kim, Uncle Wren and Aunt Jackie, Uncle Kev and Stephanie, Uncle Patch and Maria, Michelle and Greg Deacon, and Sarah, Joshua, Alex, and Hollie Melanson, and many other cousins and great nieces and a great nephew. You touched so many lives, certainly more than the ones mentioned here, and I’m sure you have no idea. How those lives will change now that you are no longer part of them. May Nicole and Nina Menard continue to dance in the sun just as though you were still there with them. Michael Wesner always held a special place in your heart, and you never forgot his family. Paul Melanson continued to have a pronounced place in your life. Pam Hendrix (Osborne) fondly remembers and cherishes the friendship you shared in your teenage years. May Dennis know how grateful you were to have him to share a common condition. To all those friends not mentioned, Lisa never forgot you. You always enjoyed making everyone laugh and feel good… presenting a show for everyone. Little did you know, you were the greatest show of all, Lisa. And now the curtain falls. This time, without an encore.
We love you.
