About Lisa

Lisa grew up along the St. Croix River, where she developed a lifelong love of boating, camping, and the outdoors. She was driven by her venturesome and boundless spirit. She instilled and nurtured these qualities in countless others by generously and frequently inviting family and friends, new and familiar, to get outside, onto the water, to enjoy adventures together. Lisa’s greatest legacy is the love, laughter, and contagious joy she shared with her family and friends.

She is survived by her mother, Charlene Banning, her sister Linda Banning, her husband Carl Ender, her three children Emily (Roman) Fiamová, Jake (Hannah) Ender, and Levi (Sarah) Ender, and her six grandchildren.

She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her.
