Dear Mrs. Dirksen and Mr. Dangoia,



My deepest sympathies to the family. Lisa was my lab partner in Chemistry at Marian Catholic. We used to joke about how close we lived to each other. Lisa will be sorely missed. God how she made me laugh.

Dear Mrs. Dirksen and Mr. Dangoia,



I am so very sorry to learn of your tremendous loss. I attended Marian Catholic H.S. with Lisa and had a school locker next to hers. I was also in the Choir with her. One of my favorite memories is how we always thought it was strange that we had such similar last names. I will always remember her pleasant personality.



May the Good Lord be with you and your family at this time of need.

Dear Mrs. Dirksen:



I am saddened by the news of Lisa's passing. I went to Marian with Lisa, and though I lost touch with her after graduation, her loss cuts very deeply. I, and many other Marian graduates who knew her are sad, but are very thankful for the short amount of time that we had with her.



Please accept my condolences and prayers for you and your family during this difficult time.



With sympathy,

Kea Meyers

Dear Mrs. Dirksen,

I am heartbroken about Lisa. She was not only one of the best students I ever had, but one of my favorites. Our sense of humor was the same. Lisa could always make me laugh especially during the "Singer" rehearsals when I needed a good laugh. Lisa touched many lives. I'm so thankful that we were friends.

With condolences,

Nancy Mirocha
