"Lisa shares her families' story with love, compassion and emotion. My favorite part of Lisa's presentation is how she shares the lessons of her family's story to the lives of young people today. From anti-bullying to language can be a form of violence, to not hating anyone because hatred only destroys the hater, and love and faith are paramount for forgiveness, Lisa inspires all whom she meets.”—Jeff Steinberg, Founder, Sojourn to the Past

"While there are so many qualities that I cherish about Lisa, what I admire the most is her authenticity as expressed in her ability to be vulnerable in sharing what has to be the most painful moment of her life. Despite whatever personal pain the continual re-telling of her story must take on her, she consistently gives of herself to every new audience in ways that are transparent on her part and transformational for those who are listening. Every time I get to her Lisa tells her story I learn something new. She has a manner that is very genuine and moving. Lisa is a very gifted storyteller, who has a demeanor that is genuine and winsome. I have seen her present before diverse types of audiences, yet what consistently rings true in each instance is the deep love and adoration they have for her due to her ability to make her story real and relatable.”—Dr. Todd Allen, Founder, The Common Ground Project
