  16. Lanny, I was so shocked to hear of Lisa’s passing. Your love was everlasting and you took such great care of her. Just know that she’s not in pain anymore, and you’ll see each other again, she’s saving you a spot in heaven. She will always be in your heart. I know you, and the family are hurting right now, but she wouldn’t want you to mourn too long, just think of all the good memories you had while she was here with us. God needed another angel and he called her home. If I can do anything for you please let me know. We love you, God Bless
