Lisa Marie O’Briant

22 years of age, born August 11, 1988 in Kansas City, Missouri. Lisa was tragically taken from us on December 5, 2010 and survived by her loving parents, Gary and Mary O’Briant of Rye, Colorado and a large extended family of Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins. Lisa attended John Newman middle school in Pueblo, Colorado. While there, Lisa brought daily sunshine to all she touched at the Outpost Harley-Davidson dealership that her parents owned. Lisa graduated in 2006 from Xavier College Preparatory in Phoenix, Arizona. Lisa attended St. Louis University from 2006 to 2009 and was preparing to graduate this June from the University of Arizona with a degree in Health Sciences. Lisa worked as an emergency room technician at Gilbert Hospital in Gilbert, Arizona since high school. God danced the day Lisa was born. Lisa was a gift and will always be remembered for her charismatic smile, engaging personality, and loving heart. Lisa had a heart of gold, kind and funny, goofy and dedicated, with a spark in her eyes like no other. Lisa placed the feelings of others first and will be truly missed.
