Elizabeth Anderson Obituary

Has it already been six years? My how time flies. I grew up with Lisa and she was always a dear friend to me. I.miss her bright smile, her charm, and her wit. I find myself thinking of her often. Lisa was a beacon of hope in this dark world. Mr.
and Mrs. Reynolds, you sure got her middle name right! Hope! Lisa was a friend who I could talk to about anything. No matter what the subject was, she would listen attentively and offer sound advice. Never judgemental or condescending, Lisa gave you her honest thoughts which came from her gigantic heart! Lisa was a very special person, I miss her dearly. I have come to realize lately just how big of an impact Lisa had on my life. This cruel world could use multitudes of money free people like her
It would be a better world. I'm looking forward to seeing Lisa again someday amd giving her a big hug! Love you, Lisa

You will forever be missed. I miss your beautiful smile, your wit, and your infectious laugh...Save a seat for me!

As the years go by, always a hole in our hearts. Love to Lisa's family

I will never find a friend as dear and true as she.
She was a beautiful bright light!
Miss you, Lisa, to the moon and back!
Love,
Jenny

Tears today Lisa, missing you. Hannah is a beautiful young woman, she's doing well, but I know she misses her Mama. You are gone but not forgotten...

I see your picture Lisa, and just can't believe that you are gone. I think of you often. Bobby and Hannah were just in SC visiting. They love and care for each other, and I know you are proud of them as am I. Please watch over them. You are missed.

Forever remembered...I miss you my dear friend...

This is how I remember her best...having fun with her kids. She will be missed.

The loss of such a beautiful loved one is forever difficult. Knowing that you are surrounded by love and prayers, and beautiful memories will help you carry on in Her memory.

May the God of all comfort sustain your family during the days ahead Psalms 119:76

My prayer and love go out to her lovely family..
RIP!! SO SORRY TO HEAR FOR HER PASSING !!

I am sorry for your loss. May you find peace and comfort from god knowing that he cares for you. 1 Peter 5 6 7

Alan/Betsy and family - Mike and I are so sorry for this painful loss you are going through. I didn't know Lisa but I cried reading about her. She sounds like a beautiful person and a marvelous teacher just like her mother. Please know that my heart is with you in this most difficult time of your life. Losing a child ( like I just did in April) is a very hard thing to bear. Mike and I are thinking of you!!!

Prayers and love to the entire family. Barbara Flinn

Keeping all of you close in thought and prayer. So very sorry for your loss... Cindy DeRito Boggess and family

My family and I are just devastated by the loss of this beautiful soul. Lisa was not only a neighbor and co worker, I considered her and her family friends. I will truly miss our conversations and passing her on the trails. I know she loved her family and friends immensely. I pray for peace and healing for your family in the hard days ahead. I know Lisa will be watching and guiding you all along the way.

I am so sorry for your loss please find hope in reading ec 9:5,10 there you can find hope for you and your love ones

Dear Rob, Katie, Hannah and your entire family...Ronnie and I both just wanted to let you all know how much Lisa meant to us. From the moment we all we moved in to our tiny neighborhood, seems like our little corner just clicked. Our kids grew up together and we always had such fun at the neighborhood get togethers and parties. I remember the first time I met Lisa at Lee and Diana's first Christmas party...she was beautiful with those big dark eyes, huge smile and always something funny to say. At all our get togethers, she always talked about the class she was teaching at the time and how she loved those kids, and she never failed to ask about my boys and how they were doing. But the one thing she truly loved talking about was her two beautiful, accomplished girls...she was so proud of you. All of her best wonderful qualities will live on through you girls. We love you all and are here for you. Love, Barb and Ron

We are truly sorry for your loss and want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. Hugs.

Lisa was a genuine person and a true friend. We were sorority pledge sisters in college, and she embodied what our sorority stood for: to live constantly above snobbery of word or deed; to place character before appearances; to be lovable rather than popular; to speak kindly; to act sincerely. I am honored to have known her and to have been her friend. I will miss her in my life.

Sorry for your loss Robert.
Thinking about you guys.
Take care,

Robert and Lisa's family,
We are thinking of you and praying for your comfort in these difficult days ahead. Lisa was a beautiful woman and we know you will miss her greatly. We are planning to attend her service and look forward to seeing you and celebrating her amazing life! She touched so many. We hope that you will stay in touch. We are just around the corner when you need a friend.

As you work through this week, know that friends far and near are supporting you in your grief. May your warm memories sustain you day by day. Ms. B

Watching this debate. Wishing they had Twitter in Heaven.

I have been wanting to post on here, but I'm just waiting for someone to call me and tell me this has been just a big mistake. I am struggling!!! I cannot refer to Lisa in past tense. Yes, she has been an AMAZING teacher, but y'all she's one of my BEST friends!!! The word that comes to mind to describe her is ENCOURAGER!!! No matter how bad or good of a day I would have, Lisa ALWAYS found positive in it. Every day at 2:45 I could count on her to walk into my classroom with a big smile on her sweet face. Gene and I went to her house Sunday night to visit her family. I was ready to introduce myself to her family. The first person I saw was her husband, Robert. He hugged me tight and said, Hi Cathy, Lisa loved you As I walked further into her house, her sweet sister, Marty, instantly knew who I was. She also hugged me and said that Lisa loved me. I assumed I would already know who they were because Lisa talked about them constantly, sharing stories with me. But they also knew me!!! Hannah and Katie(her daughter's) hugged me as if they had known me for years. Lisa and her family share a genuine love for people. I am a better person because she has been in my life.
She absolutely loved working at SJCA. At the beginning of the school year I asked her how she liked it. She told me that she was so unbelievably happy!!! She gave 100% of herself to her students and loved them as if they were her own. She loved that she could teach AND share Jesus. I know that my sweet friend is with HIM now. Please Please continue to pray for her family. The world would be such a better place if it had more of Lisa and her family in it. ❤❤

Shocking and sad news and my heart breaks for her family. I remember Lisa as a full-of-life, beautiful girl from an incredible family. Lisa obviously touched many lives since I last saw her. I will always remember her amazing smile. So very sorry for your loss Alan and Betsy and Marty and family. Sending prayers to you all and for Lisa in Heaven.

Once I retired I discussed with Lisa that I might like to do a hike through of the Appalachian Trail. I would joke with her that I didn't think that she could live without me for five months and that she would be calling me all the time wanting me to repair something around the house, take our dogs outside in the middle of the night or to remove a palmetto bug that may have found its way into our home. In other words, I thought I was indispensable and that she wouldn't be able to live without me for such a long period of time. But in this short period of time, I'm figuring out that she is the one that is truly indispensable and I don't know how I'm going to live without her. I will miss your smile, your hugs, your burnt cookies and even your daily twitter updates. I wish you were here now so I that I could tell you that it's been a wonderful 31 years and that you're as beautiful now as you were the first day I saw you. You were my first true love and I just want to hold you and never let you go. I will miss you dearly and will continue loving you until the day I die. May Gods light shine upon you.
Your loving husband and soulmate for life,
Robert.

I was blessed to have Mrs. Anderson as my fourth grade teacher. I then had the pleasure of seeing her at my daughter's events at school. She never forgot me and never went without hugging me. She had an infectious smile and shining light. Her daughters were truly her pride and joy! She was one of my favorite teachers and helped to shape me into the teacher I am today. She will be missed greatly. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family. Please know we are mourning this great loss with you.

To Bobby, Hannah and Family. We send our deepest condolences and strength to carry on. Keep in mind, that all the beautiful memories that have been made throughout the years, will remain alive in your heart and soul. And that, is a blessing.

Lisa was an amazing teacher and wonderfully sweet person! She was no doubt a shining star (and a lot of fun!) during my time at DFE! Besides school/work and the kids, Lisa would always ask me about WVU & Morgantown after I made a trip up- sometimes we joked we'd both end up in WV at the same time. :-) Katie and Hannah- {{{hugs}}} to both you girls, I wish there was something I could do for you. Hugs to my fellow DFE family- I'm sorry I can't be there Friday with you. Fly high Lisa! You are most definitely an angel!

I had the honor of working with Lisa at DFE several years. She truly cared about her students and was dedicated to serving them.

Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. May God wrap his arms around you in the coming days.

Hannah and family we are so sorry for your loss. We are praying for peace and healing through this most tragic time. May God bless all of you.

Our deepest condolences and prayers for your family during this time of loss. Lisa was a beautiful and vibrant woman who always had a beautiful smile! Your love will live on through your beautiful daughters. She will forever be missed & loved. Much Love to the Anderson Family.
Mick, Dawn, Hunter & Tyler Boone

My sincere condolences to Lisa's dear family. May God grant you peace in this difficult time and surround you with love.

Lisa had such a vibrant spirit and beautiful soul. It burst through in that incredible smile. It was my pleasure to know her. She will be missed!

Sending prayerful sorrow to Alan, Betsy and family. Such a beautiful tribute in this obituary and it has touched my heart. I will keep you in my prayers.

We are so saddened by the tragic loss of Lisa, and we love her for loving our son Bobby as her own. Lisa's beauty inside and out shines through in her daughters. Robert, Hannah, Katie, She will always be with you. Praying for God's comfort and care.

I am so sorry for your loss. Gone too soon certainly doesn't begin to express how I know you all must feel. You are in my prayers.

Our hearts are filled with sadness after hearing of the loss of our lifelong friend and classmate. Lisa was always full of life and can brighten up a room. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Lisa, and may you find peace and comfort. May God bless you all.

Katie
So sorry to hear of this. She was obviously such a energetic, wonderful person. I can see where your intelligence and effervescent personality came from.
My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

What a pleasure it was to have grown up with Lisa. We had so much fun together in school, cheering, and sleepovers. She was never anything less than genuinely kind to everyone. I've only seen her a couple of times since we graduated, and each time was like time never passed. I'm so sad for her wonderful family. But, I know we will see her again someday. Until then......I will remember her fondly.

I am very sorry to hear of this incredible loss. The entire family will be in my prayers.

Lisa was such an amazing teacher and colleague. She was always quick with a quip or word of encouragement. I am glad to have worked with her. My prayers are with her family. May you be blessed with comfort.

Our son, Walker, was blessed to have Mrs. Anderson as his teacher this past year. He truly loved her and he knew she loved him, too. As an educator myself, I and am so thankful that my son was able to have her in his life even if just for a short time. She was truly one of a kind, with an amazing spirit and we will never forget everything she has done for our son. I am so very sorry for your loss and I will continue to pray for your family and all of the families she has touched over the years.

Lisa was one of those girls in high school...one who was so beautiful, and seemed to have it altogether. She was so much fun, and always sweet to her little sister's friends. :) The shock spread throughout her Ravenswood friends as we all heard the news, and everyone agreed: a bright light went out. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Marty, I wish you peace.

I will always remember Lisa's smile and how she would light up the room when she entered. As an educator, I was impressed by her calm nature with her students. She never seemed rattled. Heaven received an angel when Lisa arrived. Anderson family, my thoughts and deepest prayers for you.

I'm Jody Crows Mom we loved Lisa like she was our own always loving her visits to Ravenswood my heart is broken for all of you,

Here in Ravenswood, we mourn the loss of your beautiful daughter, wife, mother and educator. What a beautiful spirit. May the Holy Spirit comfort and keep you today and throughout the rest of your lives as you remember this precious spirit.

A candle burns in my home today for our much-loved friend, Lisa. Though our hearts are heavy we are comforted by the many years of happy memories with her and her wonderful family. To know her, you knew the love she had for her family, ever caring and understanding. You knew her friends, for she spoke of them often. But, best of all, you knew the amazing way she could bring on the sunshine with her contagious smile, it came straight from her heart and she loved sharing it with everyone. She will be missed but forever loved. Our deepest sympathy to those who loved her most. Neil and Kay Rodgers

My heart breaks for Lisa's family and friends. The world has lost a genuine and gentle soul, and heaven has gained angel. I pray for peace and comfort for the family.

I am heartbroken as I'm sure everyone who knew Lisa is. Lisa was always a bright light in this dark world we live in. Thank God for the blessed "Hope" of seeing Lisa again someday. Lots of prayers for her family and friends.

What a tremendous loss to her community, and to Lisa's family. What a huge gain for heaven. My heart is heavy with grief and I know many others are as well. Peace and blessings to all who knew and loved her.

I love and miss you my dear friend. You were a force and will forever be remembered.
My deepest sympathy extends to the Anderson family.
