She was born on December 19, 1961, in San Luis Obispo, California, to the late Clifford Wood and the late Annie \u201cBlondie\u201d Sweares. She was also preceded in death by her stepfather, Kenneth Sweares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On December 2, 2000, Lisa married the love of her life, Randy Hensley, and together they shared nearly 25 years of devotion, laughter, and family. They were just weeks away from celebrating that milestone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lisa\u2019s heart was forever shaped by the loss of her beloved eldest son, Jason Hughes, on November 18, 1996. She carried his memory with her every day, and we find peace knowing Lisa and Jason are now reunited in Heaven. She is survived by her son Brandon Hughes of Kokomo, and her daughter Ashley Hensley (Robert Norton) of Kokomo, who will forever cherish the love and lessons she poured into them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She is also survived by her brothers Ronnie Barber of Florida and Kenneth Sweares Jr. of Kentucky; and her sisters Sherry Sweares of Peru, Indiana, Glenda Jernigan of Florida, Joyce Wood of Florida, and Kelly Wood Bradham of Georgia. She was preceded in death by her sisters Brenda Barnard, Lucinda Brundage, Christina Sweares, Lenora Blair, and Wanda Lundy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of all her blessings on earth, her grandchildren were the joy of her soul: Jarrett Hughes, Jadon Lee, Trella Hughes, and Brandon Hughes Jr. Mamaw loved them fiercely, proudly, and without limits. She supported them in every way she could, cheering them on, bragging on them, and wrapping them in unconditional love. Being a stay-at-home \u201cMamaw\u201d was one of her greatest sources of pride, purpose, and joy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lisa was a member of Reach Church in Kokomo, where she and her family were recently baptized this past October. Being baptized, and seeing her loved ones baptized beside her, was one of the most meaningful moments of her life. Her faith carried her, especially in her final year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those who knew Lisa will remember her for her grace, her deep compassion, and her ability to feel the hurt of others as if it were her own. She walked through life with a tender heart and a strength that inspired everyone around her. She had a distinctive, unforgettable laugh, one that filled rooms, lifted spirits, and will be deeply missed in the silence she leaves behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To her nieces and nephews, of which there are many, she was lovingly and proudly known as \u201cPretty Aunt Lisa.\u201d She embraced that title with humor and joy, and every child who crossed her path felt special and loved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When asked what song she wanted played at her service, Lisa chose \u201cWhen You Run Out of Tears,\u201d a reminder of her faith, her strength, and her belief that pain ends where Heaven begins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lisa fought her illness with dignity, courage, and unwavering faith. Even in her hardest days, she loved her family with a fierce and gentle devotion that never wavered. Today she walks the streets of gold, hand in hand with her son Jason and the family members who went before her, whole and at peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her legacy is pure love, enduring, and unforgettable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Services<br>Visitation will be held on Thursday, November 20th, from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM at:<br>Mount Hope Cemetery Chapel<br>411 N Grant St<br>Peru, IN 46970<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A funeral service will follow at 2:30 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be given to Flowers-Leedy Funeral Home to offset funeral expenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Arrangements have been entrusted to Flowers-Leedy Funeral Home.
