Lisa was one of the dearest souls I have ever known. My heart is broken for the family that is left behind but rejoices for Lisa who is in a new home with a new body. She loved her family so deeply and that leaves the hole she left even bigger. Remembering Lisa will always make me smile because she always made me smile, ALWAYS

Anika and Doug. So sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful person who had a witty way with words that always put a smile on your face. I feel very blessed to have known her. Coming to North Dakota will never feel the same with her gone. She made coming to a new place a lot easier.

To Lisa's family,
I am so sad to have loss a friend like Lisa. She was so full of life and enjoyed every minute. I will miss Lisa's"Bug Bites",her smile and laugh from deep within but I know she is running in heaven and watching over everyone having a good laugh at our antics. May the Good Lord wrap his loving arms around you and comfort you.

What an example Lisa provided for us that even when life handed her lemons, she found a way to make lemonade--not just for herself, but for everyone to enjoy. Thankful for her example.

Doug and Anika
We met when Hess brought me out for this job. I had doubts weather I would come out here from Kentucky. But the first time I met you at Hawkeye I was excited about coming out here to work with you all. Then my wife came out to visit and when we all got together and met each other's family my wife Kim took to Lisa and adored Lisa's spirits. We enjoyed what little time that we were able to spend you and Lisa. We will also miss Lisa as well. Our deepest condolence goes out to your family Doug. We are here for you whenever you need to someone to lean on.
God Bless

Words can not express my sadness at the loss of Lisa. Our families have known each other since our Great-grandparents, so it's like she was almost family. Like most everyone, I will miss her "meanwhile at the Barkie abode", and "bugbites" on Facebook. She brought such joy to everyone with her wit and humor. Anika, be grateful for the time you got to spend and hold onto your memories of her. Know that she was a very honorable, intelligent person who loved you so much. My prayers are with the family today as you lay her to rest. Sending love and peace.

Doug and Anika, Al and Karen, Tanya, Lynn, and family,
We so wish that we could be with you today. We are with you in spirit. Lisa was such an inspiration to all around her. Our lives were enriched by hers - not only while we were in Watford City, but more recently through facebook. We are so thankful that one day we will meet again - and that will be forever! Until then, we are praying that the peace of God that passes understanding will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
All our love and prayers,
Pastor Dave and Rose
