Lisa Gabriel Harritos

December 20, 1964 — July 19, 2024

It is with great sadness and broken hearts that we announce the passing of Lisa Lynn Gabriel-Harritos, 59, of Winder Ga, who passed away on Friday, July 19th 2024.

Lisa was born in Barrow County on December 20, 1964. The daughter of Loring and Elizabeth Gabriel. She was a graduate of Wills High School, and Lanier Technical Institute and was employed by Gwinnett Clinic.

Lisa was a breast cancer survivor, and the biggest Georgia Bulldog fan you’ve ever met! Any time you saw her she would be representing her beloved Dawgs or showing her support for breast cancer dressed up in pink. She loved music, and riding around in her little convertible. Lisa lived her life the best she knew and left this earth too soon. While our hearts mourn the loss, we take comfort in knowing she was a blessing to so many others. Characterized by her unwavering devotion to her family and her strength of spirit, her laughter and warmth created an atmosphere of love and togetherness. She had an incredible way of making everyone feel special and cherished. Her dedication to her family extended beyond her immediate household, as she was always there to offer guidance, support, and love to extended family and friends. Throughout her life, she exemplified the values of hard work, perseverance, and kindness. Her legacy is one of love, strength, and unwavering faith. She taught her family the importance of togetherness and the power of a loving and supportive family unit. Lisa’s life was a testament to the beauty of a fulfilled life, one lived with purpose and passion. She leaves behind a legacy that will continue to inspire and guide her descendants for generations to come. Her memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her. As we say goodbye, we take comfort in knowing that she is now home in heaven, free from pain and enjoying God's promises of eternal life. She is reunited with her loved ones who have gone before her, and we look forward to the day when we will see her again.

Her greatest love and source of pride was her daughter Jesilyn and Granddaughter Miss Ava-Grace.
“Gabby” as her work family and friends lovingly nicknamed her was a true friend with a beautiful soul and will be forever missed by all who knew her.
