Lisa Ann Saiani's Obituary
Lisa Ann Saiani, a beacon of warmth and kindness, passed away on August 11, 2025, at the age of 59. Born on July 24, 1966, in Cleveland, Ohio, Lisa's life was a testament to love, care, and the joy of giving. She was the cherished wife of Elizabeth Bold for 26 beautiful years, and together they created a home filled with laughter, compassion, and the pitter-patter of their beloved cats, Frankie, Bella, and Ginger.
Lisa was the treasured daughter of Bruno Saiani and the late Betty Saiani, and a sister who brought endless joy to Terry Carcella (Cindy) and Tina Yonko (Mark). Her role as an aunt was one she embraced with her whole heart, showering Mary Ailas (Chuck), Ethan, Abby, Gina, Max, Zac Yonko (Tessa) and Matthew Carcella Sweet (Zach) with love and the kind of fun that only the best aunts can provide.
Her journey through life was marked by a passion for nurturing others, a trait that shone brightly during her years as a fun and beloved preschool teacher. The adults who were once her students still speak of the joy and laughter she brought into their lives. Lisa's nurturing spirit led her back to school, where she graduated from nursing school, inspired by a health scare that touched her family. Her kind nature and the comfort she provided were a solace to many, and her presence in the nursing field was a gift to all who encountered her.
Lisa's beauty was not just in her caring actions but also in the love that radiated from within. She was a beautiful person, both inside and out, touching the lives of everyone she met with her kindness and compassion. Her laughter was infectious, her support unwavering, and her ability to make each person feel special was unparalleled.
As we bid farewell to Lisa Ann Saiani, we celebrate a life lived with boundless love and an open heart. Her legacy is one of joy, care, and the gentle touch of a woman who saw the beauty in everyone and everything. Lisa's memory will forever be a guiding light to all who were blessed to know her, and her spirit will continue to inspire acts of kindness and love in the hearts of those she leaves behind.
