Lisa Leo Nash, 55, of Bonners Ferry, Idaho, peacefully passed away in her home, Friday, May 9, 2014. She had battled cancer for the past 4 years.

Lisa was born in Olympia, WA., on November 28th, 1958 to Beverly Jean Klopsch of Alabama, and Haskell D. Leo, M.D., of Missouri.


Lisa worked various jobs most of which she enjoyed, and is well known from New York to Los Angeles for her promotion, advising, and supporting several artist and comedians. She could have been a stand-up comedian as noted by many.

Her greatest love was helping kids learn to ride horses. She was a beautiful and talented rider in both English and Western disciplines. Upon moving to Boundary County, her lifetime dream of raising and owning quality Paint Horses came true. She searched and purchased the stallion, Zippo Three Socks, and loved raising his many foals.

She was a loving mother, wife and friend to many. She never met a stranger and could talk and entertain you for hours.

She is survived by her loving daughter Mackenzie Leo Nash and her husband Jim Nash of Boundary County, one sister Carla McCreight and husband Will McCreight, M.D., of Portland, Oregon, and brother David Leo of Bellingham, Washington, two nieces Mercedes McCreight, of Portland, and Kayla Ibarra, of Los Angeles, CA and a host of cousins and beloved friends.
