Little Silver resident Lisa Butler passed away on June 26 after struggling for many years with a rare lung disease known as MAC. She was 60.

“A longtime airline and corporate flight attendant, Lisa made great friends in all corners of the globe, collecting memories everywhere from Narita to Lake Maggiore. She was often traveling, but her happy place was right here in New Jersey, where she loved spending time at the beach with her friends, family, and a great book. Everyone knew Lisa to be a kind-hearted, honest individual who was always looking out for those around her. She lit up every room with her energy and great sense of humor and will be sorely missed by all who knew her.
Lisa will forever be in our hearts.
