Lisa Sue Keath

December 26, 2015

The world became a much worse place on Saturday, December 26th, 2015 when it suddenly lost one of the most compassionate and loving people who ever lived. Lisa Sue Keath (formerly Geiger) of Lititz passed away in her home on this day. God may be grateful, but we that knew her will never be the same without her. Nevertheless, the love and affection she showed everyone she met will leave a lasting impression and she will certainly never be forgotten.
Lisa was a fun and joyful person to be around, and she gave all of the compassion she had to anyone she would meet. She was a faithful Christian, a feverish Eagles fan, an avid reader, runner, and above all a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and daughter. The pain felt by her loved ones today can only be aided by the knowledge that Lisa is in heaven and that one day we all might be lucky enough to be with her again.
Born in Lancaster, she was the loving wife of Bryan L. Keath and they were married on December 9, 2013. She is the daughter of William H. Geiger, Jr. and Mary Bond Geiger, and the mother of Joshua K. DeWitt and Jessica M. DeWitt, grandmother of Gabriel M. DeWitt, all of Lititz, PA. She is also survived by her sisters, Lori J., wife of Dan Rainey, Cross Lanes, West Virginia and Linda Jo, wife of Ed Fleth, Malvern, PA.
Lisa enjoyed her work as a professional assistant and reading tutor for the Warwick School District. As a graduate of Warwick High School, she served as the president of the student government and was selected in 1981 to the “Queen of Candle Court.” She played field hockey and was the only girl in her calculus class. As a member of Trinity Evangelical Congregational Church, she also taught Sunday School at Grace Church and loved her town of Lititz being the “coolest town in America.” Everyone who knew Lisa will remember that she was a good listener and always followed up with a friend out of her love for them. She will be remembered as being happy, having a gorgeous smile for everyone, her wit and love of life. She was a passionate person who loved her dogs and was always someone you could count on.
Relatives and friends are invited to honor Lisa at the tribute service on Saturday, January 2, 2016 from the Charles F. Snyder Jr. Funeral Home & Crematory, 3110 Lititz Pike, Lititz, PA 17543 at 11:00 A.M. with the Rev. Nathan Fry and The Rev. William Willard officiating. The family will receive friends at the Funeral Home on Friday, January 1, 2016 from 6:00 – 9:00 P.M. and on Saturday from 10:00 A.M. until time of service. The interment will be private at the New Evangelical Cemetery. Memorial contributions may be sent to the Wounded Warriors Project, P.O. Box 758517, Topeka, KS 66675.

I’m so sorry to hear this news.  We were neighbors as children and friends throughout the years. Our children were close friends at Warwick. I will miss her sweet personality and kindness.  God Bless her and the Family.

Sweet Lisa….Your beautiful smile and loving personality will be missed by so many people. When I think of you, it always makes me smile. You were a light of joy here on earth and now surely in heaven. I’ll always remember Mrs. Mitchell’s 9th grade English class with you, Lisa Gregg, Lisa Rihn, and me all sitting in the same area…What was she thinking??? Your memory will live on in your friends, parents,  husband, children, and your beautiful grandson. Love you “Sweety!”

We are all going to miss our dear Lisa so much.  She lit up the whole room with her warm and sincere smile.  Her kind heart came through in all she said and did and her joy was infectious….a true angel!  Aunt Ginny and Uncle Chuck were surely waiting for her in heaven when she arrived!
Sympathies and Blessings to you all, Carol (Miller) Zartman

Dear Bryan, friends and family,
     How can we possibly understand why God “signed off” on and allowed Lisa’s accident? All I know is that nothing happens unless God first “approves” it. So while we don’t have to agree with or understand God’s decision, we accept it and take comfort in knowing it was Lisa’s appointed time to step into the splendors of Heaven.
     Eventhough I only knew Lisa a little over a year, she touched my life greatly and was a blessing to me personally. She kept tabs on the declining health of my mother; she shared her heart with me concerning her dad’s health and how she and others were trying to take good care of him. Lisa talked often of her family and how special they were to her.
      My heart breaks for each friend and family member who will affected by Lisa’s “homegoing.” I pray you all find the peace and comfort that only comes from our Heavenly Father. May you feel His loving arms around you, upholding, comforting and guiding you as you walk through this difficult time.
       Love,
       Cristel Witman

I hadn’t seen or talked to her in years. Such a shame to hear of this. Thoughts and prayers to Brian and family. I can’t even imaging what Brian is going through.

May tender memories soften your grief,May fond recollection bring you relief,And may you find comfort and peace in the thoughtOf the joy that knowing your loved one brought…For time and space can never divideOr keep your loved one from your side.When memory paints in colors true,the happy hours that belonged to you.”
