On Thursday afternoon May 18th, my beautiful mother Lisa Serna passed away surrounded by our family. Lisa was one of the most giving, selfless, thoughtful and loving souls that we are all so grateful to have experienced. She was a complete ray of light, an endless source of laughter & joy, and the true embodiment of love. She deeply cared about her family & friends but there’s nothing in this world that Lisa loved more than her seven grand babies Shaun, Seante, Macky, Jordan, Jessie, Paradise and Aniyah. We all have so many memories of her kindness, her playfulness, her ability to show up for us when we needed it most, and her perpetual ability to light up a room and bring joy to all the people in it.

Over the past few years my mother has had a long battle with chronic kidney illness, which has been hard but completely manageable. Due to her medical conditions, our family was not able to obtain life insurance and although she struggled for some time in many ways with this condition. It wasn't until April 20th of this year that she was diagnosed with serve vascular disease. This disease took over her entire body in weeks and sadly was the cause of her death in this short time. For the past 15 years Lisa has been the sole guardian of her oldest granddaughter Seante. With her unexpected death we are asking for donations to help ease the financial burden of the final arrangements for this untimely death and to help support Seante and her future.
