Lisa Annette Wilkes

Lisa Annette Wilkes, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away on January 1, 2026, at Mercy St. Charles Hospital, leaving behind a legacy woven with love and compassion. Born on September 24, 1963, in Toledo, Ohio, Lisa spent her life nurturing those around her and creating joyful memories that will forever echo in the hearts of her family and friends. Good times began whenever she walked through the door. Lisa worked as a Claims Representative for Toledo Edison until retirement. She had an unwavering commitment to her family, especially her cherished "babies", her "Killer Bs", Bill, Bradley, and Brian. She loved to travel with her best friend Dawn, particularly wherever there was a casino. Lisa was a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers and The Ohio State Buckeyes. Her personality was defined by a remarkable ability to care for others; she could always be relied upon to drop everything and lend a helping hand. Lisa had an avid obsession with the Grinch, whose irritability transforms into kindness. Lisa leaves behind her adoring and adored sons, William Luce III, Bradley (Jessica) Luce, and Brian Luce; grandsons Devin and Aiden; siblings Pam Brown, Richard (Danny Mareaux) Wilkes, Denise (Terry) Caris, and John Wilkes. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews, her boyfriend, "Mister Ed" Grames, best friend Dawn Betz-Peiffer, and many close friends who will miss her deeply. Preceding her in death were her parents, Rupert and Norma Jean Wilkes, and her husband, Sean Booth.
