A Friend - Lisa

Let's Not Wait
We will meet again my friend,
A hundred years from today
Far away from where we lived
And where we used to play.
We will know each others' eyes
And wonder where we met
Your laugh will sound familiar
Your heart, I won't forget.
We will meet, I'm sure of this,But let's not wait till then...
Let's take a walk beneath the starsAnd share this world again.

It is with great sadness that many of us have lost a wonderful scrapbook and card maker friend, Lisa Zart. Lisa was an absolute joy to have as friend. She was always wanting to try new things and loved to make new friends. Many of us have reminisced about her these past few days, how she was so intent about getting things done and was a perfectionist, when it came to her card making. We laughed about when she would take classes, her kidding to Sue Steudel that she was the first one done, because Lisa usually was. Chris teaching a class on Shaker tags and her best friend Laurie Unbehaun and her not quite getting the concept, in fact we usually had to cut extra pieces. Many times she would just stop to visit on the weekends with me, how I will miss her smile and wonderful encouraging words. Please keep her son Devan in your prayers, along with her best friend Laurie and Lisa's family. Memories will miss her dearly!
