Lisa Melodie Roberts was born on May 2nd, 1967; the oldest child of Irene (nee Nardoni) and Paul Willard. She grew up in Harper Woods, attended Harper Woods High School and graduated in the St. Clair Shores school district. Shortly after school she became a Detroit police officer. Lisa left the police force to become a dental assistant in the city of Warren. She met the love of her life Jeffrey Roberts on a blind date. They fell madly in love and were married on April 11, 1997. They started their life together on Willowby Street in Eastpoine and were blessed with two sons; Anthony and Joseph. Lisa enjoyed soaking up the sun, teaching her boys the love of the Lord, and was amazingly creative when it came to her artistic abilities. Later on in her life, her family moved to St. Clair Shores where Lisa was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. She became a member of the MS Society and was always surrounded and supported by family and friends. Lisa always stayed strong through her sickness. One of the proudest days of her life was being there when her oldest son Anthony graduated from culinary school. She was equally proud of watching her son Joseph growing up to become a man and supported his interest in cars. She was nothing but a proud and supportive mother. Lisa was an active member of Grace Community Church and always held out a helping hand for others. Her memory will always be in the hearts of her family. Lisa is survived by her mother Irene (J.D.).
