In loving memory of Liza Liolios (Perlman) of Lakeville, MA, who died peacefully on Sunday, May 31, 2026 surrounded by her beautiful and deeply devoted family. Liza’s humor and love were rivaled only by complex medical issues that eventually took her from us too soon.

Liza was born in Malden, MA on May 23, 1973 where she resided until her family moved to the Lakes Region of New Hampshire. Liza spent her high school years in Bristol, NH and eventually relocated back to MA in the mid-90s when she met her beloved and settled down to raise a family.

Liza is survived by her husband of nearly 28 years, Dave Liolios; their children, Noah and Samantha as well as Noah’s girlfriend, Emily White; siblings Jay and Emily Perlman, Josh and Carol Perlman, and Gabby and Josh Abrams; niece and nephews, Liana and Jonah Perlman, Jack and Tyler Perlman, and Chase and Logan Abrams. Family connections extended to the Sears family, caring and supportive cousins and their children.

Liza was predeceased by her cherished mother and in-laws, Barbara Perlman, and George and Ellie Liolios.

Liza lived a life surrounded by “chosen family.” An extensive circle from Liza and Dave’s early years enveloped Liza’s life during joyful times camping, traveling to Lake George and Lincoln, NH, and were also a meaningful source of comfort through times of sorrow, loss, and illness. Liza served as a second mom to many but most notably to her girls, Kiera Tuttle and Katie Cantor (Tuttle).

Liza was at her happiest at the baseball field or hockey rink cheering on Noah, the auditorium or gymnasium watching Sammi, attending Dave’s and Noah’s band performances, playing Rummikub, dominoes, Scrabble, or Mah Jong, or working on her latest craft project - all with a large iced coffee or iced tea in hand.

In her final act of love and generosity, Liza chose organ donation, offering life-giving hope to those who needed it most.
