“What are you doin’?” Is how my morning started for the last 20 plus years. How I wish I could still hear those words today and the rest of my life. Sadly, my best friend Aunt Lisa has passed on to the big cocktail lounge in the sky, where she will sip vodka grapefruits and Veuve Champagne for eternity. She was not a Godly woman, but more Christ-like than anyone I will ever know. Her life was gift to everyone she knew. Countless hours for her family, her friends and anonymously to those in need. No one can ever replace her fire, her spunk, and what I will miss most, her voice. She won’t have to wonder where her Chanel’s are (her sunglasses always on top of her head). She won’t have to answer anymore questions about her handbag “Yes, it’s a real Louis Vuitton”, she would exclaim! “LA Fitness (she pronounced LAW Fitness) is no longer a thing, “Ohhhhhh” (all 6 syllables) is now silent. I know I am not the only one with a huge void, because so many were touched by her spirit. She meant the world to me, and my heart is broken. Although I am sad, I know I have the toughest guardian angel watching over me, encouraging me, and telling me “Now Hackett, don’t do that !”. So now I turn my tears of sadness into tears of joy, celebrating her, and the gift she was to me everyday. She gave me the greatest gift of understanding without judgement. No, my phone doesn’t ring every morning at 7:30 AM with “what are you doin’?”, but I will always hear her in my heart. I love you Lisa, and cherish you always!Love,Your Hackett
