about lisa
Lisa Gerstman was born August 29, 1958 to Carol and Harvey Gerstman. Growing up in Brooklyn, Rosedale and Valley Stream, she was a wonderful daughter to her parents and older sister to Dan, Brad, and Linda. Like so many girls growing up in Metropolitan New York in the 1960s, Lisa was filled with the joys and wonderments of being a child. She was a genuinely beautiful person who enjoyed her dog Dixie and music. But most important to her was the comfort of her family. The summer prior to her passing, Lisa had graduated Forest Road School in Valley Stream and was looking forward to attending Valley Stream South High School. Lisa was a kind, caring and loving young lady who was adored by her grandparents, parents, siblings, family and friends.
