Lisa Michelle (Kremer) Puyear, 50, of Chesterfield, MO, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, May 12, 2026 after a long and courageous battle with breast cancer, which she faced with remarkable strength, determination, and without complaint.

Lisa was a devoted wife for 23 years to Chris, a loving mother to Libby and Charlie who are her proudest accomplishments, and the heart and CEO of her home. She poured her life into caring for her family and creating a warm, welcoming place for all who knew her.

Lisa was a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, niece, and friend to many. Her life touched countless people, and the friendships she built over the years were a testament to the love and compassion she shared so freely.

Lisa brought joy wherever she went. She was incredibly funny, quick with a witty comment or silly facial expression, and always willing to share a laugh. She loved music-especially the songs of the 1970s and 1980s-and could often be found singing along, dancing, and making every gathering more fun just by being there. Whether at a family celebration, a get together with friends, or an ordinary evening at home, Lisa had a gift for making people feel comfortable, included, and happy.

Practical, steady, and thoughtful, Lisa was someone others naturally turned to for advice and support. She approached life with common sense, humility, and a calm strength that grounded those around her. Even in difficult moments, she carried herself with grace and an appreciation for life.

A graduate of Missouri State University and a proud member of Delta Zeta sorority, Lisa formed lifelong friendships that she cherished deeply. She was known for her kindness, loyalty, quiet resilience, and the genuine way she cared for others.

Though her loss leaves an immeasurable void, her family and friends will forever remember her strength, warmth, laughter, and unwavering love.
