Lisa Marie Ritter

Lisa Marie Ritter, born on March 15, 1966, in Dayton, Ohio, was a radiant soul who touched the hearts of all who crossed her path. She left this world on January 29, 2025, in Vandalia, Ohio, but her spirit will continue to shine brightly in the memories of her loved ones.

Lisa was a beacon of joy, famously known for her vibrant personality. She never met a stranger, and her warmth and kindness made everyone feel welcome. Those fortunate enough to know her will remember her as an angel—a sweet little girl in heart, regardless of her age. Her laughter was infectious, often echoing through the rooms where she spent time with family and friends, especially during Christmas time, eagerly awaiting HOHO to arrive.

Her hobbies brought her immense joy, whether it was coloring lovingly detailed pictures or immersing herself in the world of soap operas with mom. The cherished moments spent watching OSU football with her beloved brother Tony and Gregory, were always highlights of her life, filled with laughter and spirited discussions.

Lisa's life, though it came to an end too soon, was enriched by the relationships she fostered along the way. She is survived by her cherished brother, Anthony (Melinda Kincaid) Ritter; her aunts, Darlene Mills and Sally (Dave) Murphy; her uncles, Rick (Kim) Manns and Paul (Ima) Manns; and her special friends, Kevin, Stacie Kincaid and Gregory Martin; her beloved dog, Nova and her two nieces and cousins. They carry her essence within them, honored to have known a remarkable woman whose spirit knew no bounds.

While Lisa's departure leaves a profound void, she joins her beloved parents, John and Dorothea Ritter; her brother, Tim Ritter; and her grandparents, Ralph and Naomi Manns, in eternal rest. Together they form a tapestry of love that continues to inspire those of us left on this earth.

A visitation will be held on Friday, February 7, 2025, from 12:30 PM to 1:30 PM at Newcomer Funeral Home - North Chapel, located at 4104 Needmore Rd, Dayton, OH 45424. Following this, a funeral service will begin at 1:30 PM at the same location, providing an opportunity for friends and family to celebrate the extraordinary life of Lisa Marie Ritter.

The family would like to thank the RHA Foundation and Lynette for their wonderful care.

As we bid farewell to this beautiful spirit, let us remember her shining light and the love she freely gave. Lisa Marie Ritter lives on in our hearts, a testament to the impact one soul can have in the lives of many.
