Lisa Marie (Fiorello) Seip, 61, of Nazareth, Pennsylvania, passed away on January 6, 2026.

Born on March 26, 1964, in San Francisco, California, she was the daughter of Joan (Morgan) Ellington and the late James Richard Fiorello. Lisa grew up in Stanhope, New Jersey, and attended Lenape Valley Regional High School, where she became the first female basketball player to score over one thousand points. In 2012, Lisa was inducted into the Inaugural Class of Lenape Valley Athletic Hall of Fame. Upon graduation, Lisa was recruited by the County College of Morris and continued playing basketball. After graduating, Lisa began working at Mars Wrigley and eventually retired. In 1990, Lisa married Brian Seip and moved to Nazareth, where they raised their daughter, Katelyn.

Lisa loved being a mom and enjoyed working, walking, listening to, and singing Garth Brooks songs. She was also an avid Dallas Cowboys fan and followed many NASCAR races, especially car No. 18, Kyle Busch. To know Lisa was to truly like her. She will be remembered for her gentle and kind manner and her warm, beautiful smile.

Lisa is survived by her beloved daughter, Katelyn Marie, and fiancé, William Notarianni; her mother, Joan (Morgan) Ellington; sister, Jacqueline Ann Fiorello; nieces, Marin Katherine Stubbs and Justine Morgan Stubbs; several aunts, uncles, and cousins; and her stepmother, Margaret (Fisher) Fiorello. She was preceded in death by her husband, Brian; father, James Richard Fiorello; stepfather, Donal G. Ellington; and uncle, Robert Morgan.
