Lyme, N.H. — Heather Lizotte passed from this life into eternity in heaven on Monday, Aug. 27, 2018, at the age of 38. Heather’s life was challenging here on earth, as she lived with Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome, a chromosomal disorder, causing multiple disabilities. Heather far exceeded her life expectancy, and for this, her family is very grateful. Those who love her are saddened at the loss of her sweet presence, but rejoice that she is in heaven with Jesus, now having her new body. We long to see her there, running and dancing and singing, and to finally be able to hear her speak our names.

Heather was born in Manchester, N.H. and lived in Greenville, N.H. until the age of nine. She then moved to Wilton, N.H. and attended the Wilton Public Schools, where she was loved by the students, the teachers and the aides who had the pleasure of sharing life with her. At the age of 19, Heather moved to Lyme, where she lived until the time of her passing. She lived at the Orford Road Residence where she received amazing care and had many friends in her home and community. Heather attended several churches in her community over the 19 years she lived in Lyme, most recently she attended Lyme Congregational Church, where she found love, acceptance and support.

Heather leaves her mother, Robin Lizotte of Dracut, Mass. and companion Frank Dubuc; her father, Thomas Lizotte and stepmother, Kathleen Lizotte of Hudson, Mass.; her brother, Nathan Lizotte of Mont Vernon, N.H.; and sisters, Holly Mitsch of Milford, N.H. and husband Daniel, Tricia Maillet of Shirley, Mass. and husband Randy, Mallory Lizotte of Hudson, Mass., Christa McGee of Texas and husband Josiah, Marxie Lizotte of Pittsburgh, Pa., Rebekah Lizotte of Hudson, Mass. and her fiancee David Rano, Elisia Lizotte of Harwich, Mass. and Breanna Lizotte of Hudson, Mass.
