Lisa Marie Manfredo

In Loving Memory of Lisa Marie Manfredo
April 15, 1961 – January 17, 2026

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Lisa Manfredo, who left us far too soon on January 17, 2026 surrounded by her family. A woman of immense grace and benevolence, Lisa was a constant shining light for everyone who knew her.

Lisa was best known for her radiant smile, bright eyes, and kind soul. She believed that life was meant to be lived by sharing love and making memories with friends and family. She spent much of her time doing just that in her favorite place—Hollywood Beach, Florida.

Her greatest pride was her family, whom she cherished with unconditional love. She was a devoted daughter of the late Richard Gomes and his wife Constance Gomes; a beloved sister to Edward Gomes; Richard Gomes Jr. and his wife, Wendy Gomes; and her adored sister, Nicole-Crystal Gomes. She was also a loving aunt to Trevor, Luke, and Samuel Gomes, and Tia Sanzaro.

As a mother, Lisa gave selflessly, teaching her children the value of kindness and the importance of family unity. She leaves behind her treasured sons: Paul Manfredo and his wife, Melissa Sanford; Richard Manfredo; and Anthony Manfredo.

Her legacy grew even more vibrant as she became a loving grandmother to Paul Sanford, Arianna Manfredo, Jordan DelMonico, and Hailey Kim, and a proud great-grandmother to her new great-grandson, Naszier Matthews Jr. She embraced these roles with natural warmth, creating memories her grandchildren will carry with them forever.

To her family, she was more than a matriarch; she was a best friend and a guiding star.

Lisa lived her life with an open heart. Her compassion was deeply impactful, felt by friends and strangers alike. She leaves behind a world that is a little dimmer without her, but infinitely brighter for having had her in it.

In a world where you can be anything, be kind—just like Lisa.
