Lisa was born June 10, 1963, to Lois Arlene Sutton and Bobby Joe Ray in Amarillo, TX. She grew up in Plainview, TX and graduated from Plainview High School in 1981. Soon after, she married the love of her life Mike Rogers in 1982. They had three beautiful children, Justin, Marcus, and Mica. She worked many years in retail doing merchandising resets and spent the last couple of years of her life working as a bail bondsman. She never met a stranger and was always the life of the party. She was always found helping someone. She lit up every room she walked into and made sure everyone she encountered felt seen and loved. If you knew Lisa, you knew love.
