Lisa K.
Burks
Jul 1, 1955 — Jun 6, 2023
Lisa K. Burks, 67, passed peacefully June 6 th after multiple courageous health battles. Lisa was born in Racine on July 1, 1955, the daughter of the late Robert and Katherine (nee: Holt) Martinson.
As a child when asked, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" her answer, "A mommy!" and her children would definitely agree; she was the best mother one could ever ask for. They were her life and love. In addition to her children, Lisa had many passions. She was a sun worshipper who loved a frozen pina colada and a good sweet treat. Lisa took great pride in both her beautiful home and perfectly groomed yard.
Just shy of her 68 th birthday, she was taken from this Earth too soon. We celebrate an incredible woman, dedicated mother, business woman, and forever guiding light. May she always live on in our hearts and stories!

Myers FL, Jenifer (Patrick) Loew, of Lake Geneva, Michelle (Mark) Drezdzon, of Ft. Myers, FL, and Kristine Lynn, of Knoxville, TN; nieces and nephews, Eric, Katherine, Paul, Brandon, Josh, Melissa, David, and Michael; and her beloved fur babies Darcy, Wellington Buttons, and Chunk. In addition to her parents, Lisa was preceded in death by her son, Jeffrey Rogers.
Her funeral service will be held in the funeral home on Saturday, June 17 th at 11:00 a.m. Visitation will be from 10:00 a.m. until the time of the service. Private entombment will follow in Calvary Cemetery Garden Crypts,
