Lisa J. Libis, 55

WARWICK, R.I. – Lisa J. Libis passed away peacefully, surrounded by her children on March 23 after a courageous battle with breast cancer.  Lisa was a graduate of Keene State College in New Hampshire, and resided in Warwick for the past nine years. 

Her greatest joy was being a loving and devoted mother to her three beautiful children, Isaac, Samuel and Luciana Libis. 

She is also survived by her second family, Mr. & Mrs. Frank Catano of Goffstown, N.H., their children Katherine and Nicholas Catano, the father of her children, Carl Libis and his wife Sandi of West Greenwich. She was dearly loved by her Cancer Sisters from the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Foundation, friends from the Kent County YMCA and many others who have had the joy of knowing her. 

A celebration of her life will take place at Winman Junior High School in Warwick on April 14 at 7 p.m. All who have been touched by her story and life are welcome to join the celebration. Please wear pink in honor of Lisa, as she was an advocate for breast cancer awareness.
