25Lisa Ellison OtherQuotesQuotes

Lisa Ellison
Lisa Ellison: I lived a life that made me proud. I was loved and I loved in return. I found work that aroused my passions. I believe I gave more than I took. And I did my damnedest to help people in need. And on top of all that, many a friend wrongly accused me of having Botox because of how tight my skin stayed well into my 50's. What more could someone ask of a life? I love you all. Thank you for being here today. Goodbye. Lisa.



26Lisa Ellison OtherQuotesQuotes

Lisa Ellison
Lisa Ellison: If you are reading this it's because I, Lisa Magical Ellison, have died. Obviously, this is not ideal, but I guess it had to happen at some point. Hopefully, I expired under the heaving thrusts of a sweaty Idris Elba, or perhaps in a less dignified manner, under the heaving thrusts of a sweaty Russell Crowe. Irrespective of how I went, I ask that those closest to me not mourn all that much.
