Lisa Marie Roberts Volpe

She was born on December 30, 1962, the daughter of Rita F. Moeller Roberts in Buffalo, NY.

Lisa was a 1981 graduate of Southwestern Central School and received her degree from Jamestown Business College in 1983.

Formerly, Lisa was employed by Northwest Savings Bank and Marine Midland as a mortgage broker, Bly Sheffield Bargar & Pillittieri as a Real Estate Legal Secretary, eventually leaving in 1998 to work for 25 years at the City of Jamestown as the Assessment Clerk and eventual city Assessor, where she was affectionately known to many of her customers as “The STAR Lady” until her retirement in January of 2024. While at the city she volunteered as Union President of the CSEA Chautauqua County Unit 6305 Local 807 CSEA from 2004-2020.

Lisa was a social butterfly. She always knew someone wherever she went. She was wise, she always knew someone for whatever project you were looking for. She was witty, she was always ready with a joke for whatever the situation required. But most of all she was kind.

She always offered anyone a sweet smile and a helping hand to whoever needed it.

Aside from spending time with her family and 7 month old puppy, Moose, she enjoyed dinners with her friends. She was a longtime member of the Southern Tier legal secretaries, served as team parent for many of her daughter’s sports teams. Lisa was an excellent gardener, an avid shopper, always looking for the best deals.
