**In Loving Memory of Aleissia (Lisa) Purser**

Aleissia (Lisa) Purser, aged 90, peacefully left this world on March 16, 2025, in the comfort of her home in Groves. She dedicated her life to creating a nurturing environment filled with love and joy for her family.

Lisa is survived by her beloved children: her daughter Melissa Kay Simon and her husband Thomas of Groves; her son Mark Alan Purser and his wife Donna of Hemphill; and her daughter Belinda Fay Braquet and her husband Kyle of Willis. She also leaves behind her cherished daughter-in-law Joyce Purser of Groves, along with numerous grandchildren who filled her life with happiness: Trina Palermo and her husband Steve, Heather Doiron and her husband Ricky, Misty Craigen and her husband Rocky, Lindsey Allen, Amy Braquet McGowen, Derek Purser and his wife Stacy, Zach Purser, Kasie Simmons and her husband Tommy, Matthew Purser, and Blake Braquet and his wife Meghan, in addition to her 19 beloved great-grandchildren and 4 great-great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her devoted husband, Hilton Howard Purser, and her son Milton Wayne Purser, as well as her parents, Emeritte and Dennis Landry. She is also reunited with her siblings: Wallace, Paul, Carry, U.J., Alford, Emma, and Becky.

Lisa's legacy of love, kindness, and commitment to her family will forever be etched in the hearts of those who knew her. As a long-time member of Friendship Baptist Church of Groves, she embraced her faith and shared her warmth with her community.

A visitation will be held Wednesday, March 19, 2025, from 12 P.M. till 2 P.M. with a Memorial service at 2 P.M, here at Clayton Thompson Funeral Home, followed by an Interment at Greenlawn Memorial Park in Groves.

While we mourn the loss of Lisa, we celebrate a remarkable life filled with compassion, devotion, and strength. She will be deeply missed but forever remembered by her family and friends.
