I just heard of Lisa's passing. I was a co-worker for a few years before leaving Principal in 2008. I loved Lisa and have often thought of her over the past few years. I wish I would have heard in time to come and pay my respects. Please know that my thoughts are with you all right now and that Lisa was truly loved and appreciated by her friends and co-workers at Principal. Lisa is someone I will never forget.

I worked with Lisa many years ago at Principal, in the HR Benefits department. She was always up for a good laugh, great to work with, and just fun to be around. She will be missed by all. Rest in Peace, Beth

For so many years prior to and following my retirement, Lisa was always one of the most helpful individuals that ever assisted my Bankers Life / Principal Life agency in Arlington Heights, Illinois.
Whenever we had questions, Lisa was always the sweet "go to" person that always assisted us and had such a wonderful ability to make you feel SPECIAL.
What a sad day for all of us to learn of her passing.
My condolences to her family and to all those at the Principal Financial Group that had the pleasure to work with her.
She was an asset to all that had the wonderful experience of knowing her, and whose kindness, unselfishness, and smiling personality this world will sorely miss.
