In 1996 Lisa and Ed retired to Catawba Island, Ohio to be near the waters of Lake Erie. They then moved on to State College, PA in 2001 to be closer to their grandchildren and where Lisa excelled at extending a legacy of art and laughter to a new generation.

She is survived by her loving husband, Edward; her sons, Leo and Scott; daughter, Dodie and three grandchildren Will, Lucy and Ivy Subler.
