Obituary

Lisa Arlene MacDonald, 64, of Lincoln, passed away peacefully on August 28th surrounded by love.

At her request there will be no services. Cremation rites have been accorded by Holland Barry & Bennett Funeral Home.

She was born on December 12, 1959 to Arlie and Lila Joiner in Harrisburg, IL. They preceded her in death.

Lisa is predeceased by her parents, grandparents and husband, Michael. She married Michael on September 17, 1986 and they shared nearly 34 wonderful years together before his passing in 2020. Lisa and her family owned and operated Arrowhead Acres Camp Ground in Clinton for many years prior to relocating to Lincoln. She was employed by the Illinois Department of Corrections in Lincoln for 20 years.

She is survived by a brother Jeffrey Joiner (Carolyn),a cousin who was more like a brother Robert West (Lisa), a friend who was like a sister Karen Klockenga-Burgrabe (Nick), a friend who was like a daughter Shelly Constance ( Keith), and a niece, nephew, great niece and her two beloved dogs Sadie and Bubbles. Her pets brought her immense joy and comfort and were always treated as part of the family. Also surviving her are her boys Luke Newhouse, Seth Constance, and Wyatt Constance. They were the light of her life and she was fiercely proud of them.

There are many friends, family, neighbors and coworkers that she leaves behind who will treasure the memories they’ve made with her and honor her legacy everyday.

She had a kind and generous spirit that flowed into everyone she came in contact with. Her friends were not just friends they were her chosen family. She had a way of making you feel special and could make everything more fun just by being there. She loved adventures and traveling and especially her time in Florida these past few winters.

Lisa will be deeply missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. Her legacy of love, kindness, and unwavering loyalty will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. She leaves behind a world that is a little less bright without her, but her memory will forever be a guiding light.
