Lisa has been remembered as a "funny", "smart" and "gentle" person. 

"She was very shy but she never had a bad word to say about anything," a former neighbour and friend, Jeremy Maspero, told the Sydney Morning Herald.

"She’d just make me laugh and [was] just someone that you’re happy being around. Sort of cool, calm, collected – you know she listened."

Others have paid tribute to the 59-year-old in a Facebook post shared by journalist and femicide researcher Sherele Moody.

"Incredibly sad and shocking. I went to school with Lisa and lived around the corner from her for a couple of years, so hung out with her a bit. She was a very gentle soul. Not a bad bone in her body. Hope she rests in peace..." one person wrote.

"Lisa was a kind beautiful softly spoken lady," wrote another.
