Lisa was preceded in death by her brother Jason McMichael; father in law Barney Partin; grandparents Robert Zimpher, Paul F. McMichael, Eleanor and Paul Shuey, Dale and Pearl Pollock; aunt Deb Roby; and uncles Robert and Don Pollock.

Lisa was the first shift supervisor at One World Logistics in East Liberty, Ohio. Lisa was a hard worker, so much so she continued to work for as long as her body would let her. She would go to work before and after chemo treatments in Columbus. She loved her job and made many great friends along the way. Lisa was a source of love and laughter to everyone who knew her and she knew no stranger. Lisa was so passionate about everything she did, she was most passionate about her family, especially her girls, they were her everything and she was so proud of them. Lisa loved the little things in life. She loved being out and about with her husband at a restaurant, casino, or ballgame. She grew to love Cleveland baseball and The Ohio State Buckeyes thanks to her husband, whom she loved dearly. Lisa's favorite hobbies were cooking and crocheting blankets for many that she loved. She enjoyed cooking for her family and she was so good at it. She spent many days and hours after her diagnosis crocheting blankets for as many people in her life as she could. She loved to gift her work. Lisa was giver, a lover, a friend, but most importantly she was a fighter. She never gave up and always followed what she thought was right and nothing could stop her.

Lisa will truly be missed by so many and although her time here with us was too short her memory will forever live on in our hearts. She fought a hard fight and faced her daily battle with cancer with unmatched courage. Even on her hardest days, she fought fiercely, keeping her hope bright, a beautiful smile on her face, and her love for her family first. Her strength allowed her to cherish incredible milestones this year, including watching her oldest daughter get married and holding her newborn granddaughter for the very first time.

Her family extends deep gratitude to her medical team at Ohio Health Riverside in Columbus who fought alongside her, without their dedicated care and support, we would not have been blessed to share these precious moments and have her with us for as long as we did.
