Lisa Ann Kofoed-Vogt, 57, formerly of Vinton, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2021, at her home following a monthslong illness.

A celebration of Lisa's life will be held at a later date. Interment will be held at Evergreen Cemetery in Vinton. In lieu of flowers, cards or condolences may be forwarded to Brian Culver, 803 N. Franklin St., Manchester, IA 52057.

Lisa was born on Aug. 28, 1963, in Vinton, the daughter of Ralph and Bettiann (Halverson) Kofoed. She graduated from Washington High School in Vinton with the Class of 1981. Lisa lived for a short time in Missouri and later in Arizona, but Iowa was always home. She worked for several years in food service at Shellsburg Elementary School.

Lisa met her life partner, Brian Culver, in 2013 and they realized they were meant to be together. Their love grew over the years, and Brian was at her side the morning of her passing. Lisa had a unique spirit about her. She was very close to her Dad. She enjoyed animals, motorcycles and rock music. She loved to cook and her specialties included Snickers Apple Salad and Chocolate Pizza, which she always brought to family gatherings.

In addition to her partner Brian, Lisa is survived by her brothers, Doug (Karen) Kofoed of Des Moines and Darin (Elizabeth) Kofoed of LeRoy, Ill.; nieces and nephews, Jennifer, Amber, Joshua and Nathan; uncle, Kenneth (Mary) Kofoed of Marshalltown; five cousins; lifelong friend, Robyn Winterroth of Vinton; and three very special kitties.

Lisa was preceded in death by her parents; niece, Renee; and several aunts, uncles and cousins.
