LB - Lisa Schmidt (nee Black)
It is with sadness that I write this post. Tears in my eyes and in my heart.
Today I celebrated my dear friend Lisa's life who passed away on January 13th. All too soon.

It was my pleasure to work with her for almost 6 years and then continue our friendship for 6 more years.
In those 12 years there were many stories shared (and in proper Lisa style, no descriptive detail left out).
I was honored to be introduced by her to her loving husband Richard. His strength through all of this is noteworthy. I can't imagine the bravery it took from both Lisa and Richard to get through her fight against Melanoma.
Four years ago at their wedding I saw true love. It never faded even in the difficult times.
In that time they had a beautiful little girl who has just turned three. In their daughter I see Lisa. I look forward to seeing her grow over the years to come.
While it is difficult to face the reality, there is also peace.
Today was hard. However I am blessed to come home and hug my family a little tighter tonight.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Richard and Isabella as they face what is next.
May they hold tight to the good memories.
