In Memoriam

July 23, 2022

On Saturday, July 23, 2022, Lisa Lorraine Novelli unexpectedly entered the gates of Heaven, surrounded by her loving family. Lisa was the beloved first child of Charles and Lorraine Novelli. She was raised in Upper St. Clair and graduated from Washington & Jefferson College. Throughout her life, Lisa's top priority was dedication to family and friends. She is survived by her children, John Henry and Maggie Rose, who were her greatest accomplishments and brightest stars. In addition, Lisa also leaves behind her partner-in-crime sister, April (Ross) Langford; and her cherished brother, Todd (Susan) Novelli; as well as her best friend, Frank LaButis, who stood by her side in the worst of winds and the calmest of seas. Her adoring nieces and nephews, Vivian Langford, Ross Joseph (Julia) Langford, Nicholas (Brianna) Novelli, and Zachary Novelli each have lost an irreplaceable advocate in their lives. She was preceded in death by her grandmothers who were undoubtedly at Heaven's door waiting for her with open arms. May she rest in the eternal embrace of God's Love. Family and friends are welcome on Friday, July 29 after 1 PM until the time of her Memorial Service at 4 PM, WILLIAM SLATER II FUNERAL SERVICE, 1650 Greentree Rd., Scott Twp., 15220, 412-563-2800.
