Lisa Mathews, who had a reputation for taking in BYU football players with few or no local ties, will be laid to rest Saturday at the Orem City Cemetery.

Here is a formal obituary that ran this week in local newspapers.

In the meantime, memories of her life and service continue to come through email, text messages and social media.

A message from a father whose twins, Garrett and Mitchell Juergens, played for the Cougars far from their Houston home, detailed how Lisa came to influence them.

Here is Dr. Kurt Juergens email, shared with his permission from Houston, Texas.
