Lisa's life was a testament to kindness, warmth, and devotion. An alumna of Northeast High School's Class of 2010, she pursued her passion for animals as a Vet Tech, where her love for all creatures great and small was evident in every gesture. Her colleagues and clients alike knew her as a compassionate caregiver who would go above and beyond to ensure the well-being of every animal she encountered.

Lisa's heart was not only with animals; she also found immense joy in art and music, particularly the sounds of her favorite band, Papa Roach. Her family and friends will fondly remember her as a quiet, devoted soul, whose humor and quick wit brought laughter and light into their lives. She touched the hearts of all who knew her and left a lasting legacy of love.

Lisa is survived by her beloved parents, Elisa Ratliff and Carl Timothy Ratliff, her siblings Kelly Ratliff, Cynthia Robertson, and Carl "TJ" Ratliff, Jr., her grandmother Frances Ratliff as well as her boyfriend JR Browning and his daughter Sophia and his mother Kathie. She is preceded in death by her paternal grandfather William Ratliff, maternal grandmother Janice Green, and her beloved dog, Nala.
