Tisha Lehfeldt Obituary

My deepest condolences to Tish´s family. I loved Tish even though I barely knew her from Kaneohe Hope Chapel. She just had such a beautiful soul and had God´s joy upon her. She was just so real about her feelings. I remember the time she shared about having been in a funk and was just hiding from the people she loved because she needed time to herself. She was someone I regret not having known more.
Even though it´s been over 20 years since I´ve seen her, (she was on the worship team when I knew her) she left a lasting footprint upon my soul.

To Tisha s family. Deepest sympathies. She is in God's loving arms. So enjoyed her on the radio for many
years. Love to you and God Bless

I know Tisha through Hope Chapel Kaneohe many years ago. She was my 3 teenagers youth pastor. Boy, did my daughter, Naomi, love being with her!! Tisha mentored and encouraged her in her faith with the Lord. With Tisha's huge and beautiful smile she lite up the room wherever she went. Her warmth and compassion for others made everyone feel so loved and accepted. She lived big, loved Jesus big and impacted others big in her short life. May Jesus give her peace now. We will see you again, dear sister, when we all meet again in heaven. A hui hou!

Our condolences. She showed us how to live a life of exclamation. She loved big, clapped loud, and smiled from ear to ear. She was our biggest fan. Our prayers are with you all.

You changed my life for the better. You were always there for me. I will always remember our talks, our lunches together, when you came in the women's prison with me to minister... there were so many memories ... Rest in peace my friend. I will see you when I get heaven. I love you!!

Tisha was always such a joy! The moment she came into the office you could feel such an uplifting vibe! She always made you feel so loved and gave the best bear hugs! She had a wonderful smile and loved that she took care of her teeth . I will truly miss her and am looking forward to seeing her in heaven! Rest in love T... I´ll catch you later

Tisha was a wonderful dynamic woman.... I knew her through Hope Chapel Kaneohe.....
To be absent from the body.... to be Alive in the Presence of the Almighty God ....... Thank you Father for your daughter Tisha ... Amen

Sweet memories of meeting Tisha in 1994 when George started to go to mini church. Her love and enthusiasm for the LORD has made a lasting impact on him as he continues to follow JESUS! Thank you for the sacrifices you´ve made to teach and show the love of GOD to the youth! A Hui Hou and Sweet Aloha

I met Tisha at inspire waikele loved her from her smile /hugs /and words

I never met you in person, my dear but I could tell that you loved Jesus, His people, and Jason with all your heart. We will meet someday, and I am truly looking forward to it. Lots of love to you and Jason.

Tisha Falcon Lehfeldt made life more beautiful with her presence her hugs changed everything in the second she embarrassed you... I am one of the lucky ones to have received her warmth. You will always be with me. Till we meet again... I pray that in heaven we are able to get one of your hugs.
I Love you more xoxox my beautiful sister

Tisha inspired me To write a song for one of our Women´s Retreat, when she was the Women´s leader at Hope Chapel Kaneohe, a while back. I saw a video sometime last year of her playing the guitar and worshipping the Lord. That inspired me, at age 68, to learn to play the guitar. I got a guitar for Christmas. She was one of a kind and I was blessed to have known her. I´m so happy that I got to see her and meet Harley, back in Sept, when I went home for a visit.

Tisha was a wonderful, thoughtful, beautiful, amazing human. She's an inspiration to us all to be the best person we can be. As she is in Heaven, I believe she's watching over her loved ones with her big smile and loving arms to hug. You will be in all our hearts always.

Praying for Family & everyone connected to Tisha. What a powerful example of the Father´s love. Sending some Aloha from Washington State

What an AMAZING life of joyful impact that Tisha had on all who came in contact with her. While I never personally met Tisha, every time I had the privilege of meeting up with Jason, his eyes would `light up´ and would talk with enthusiasm about his love for Tisha and the blessing that she was to him as a husband and to countless others. Following her journey on Facebook and Instagram over the past 18mths was a privilege and I was truly blessed and inspired by her as she walked this difficult journey. Praying for Jason and Tisha´s family as they navigate the pain of separation, but also join them in celebrating a life well run and her homecoming welcome into eternal life with our Saviour and Lord, Jesus Christ.
Much love,
Peter Abrahams

Tisha was a beautiful soul and so close to God that she will continue to touch those she knew on earth. I met her through Elina Wells. I was amazed at how she always made you feel like you were the center of attention even if she spoke to you for a few minutes. I will never forget her. Comfort prayers for Jason, her family and all those she loved. Rest easy now Tisha. Well done good and faithful servant. Aloha.

I met Tisha through Hope Chapel Kaneohe way back in the day. She was my now grown daughter Shannon's youth group leader. She was such a sweet person with such a zeal for the Lord. I am certain that she heard a "Well done" when she came face to face with the Father.

Tisha was always loving and welcoming to gay people like me.

A beautiful lady. I really appreciated your spirit...
So grateful....

She was a bright light, she inspired many. Many loved her. She was infectious, always on fire for God. I will miss her smile.
Till we meet again. She is flying with angles.

Tisha, what a beautiful soul and giving human being. Jason, we love you and have you in our thoughts. Aloha. Scott & Tina Frank and Family.

We took this picture at Anchor and I said this is the "old school" Hope Chapel photo and Tisha cracked up at me comment. Love you Tisha ... old school represent

Amazing wahine who touched my life in so many ways. ( the page isn´t long enough) A true KOAhine that was an epitome example of Gods disciple !

To Jason and family we pray for your comfort and peace at such a time as this. We met Tisha and you, Jason, in Cannon Beach OR. many years ago. We were walking a trail that over looked the beach when Tisha and you walked up and began talking. Our paths were met to cross and in that one meeting we became immediate friends. Tisha´s smile and warmth could make anyone who met her feel loved. She´s a light and was a gift to so so many and will be terribly missed. One day we will all see her again and dance on those beautiful streets in heaven. Love and prayers as you move forward Jason and family but yet know she will be waiting for that day when you all join her in that forever.
Love Marie and Ron Daube

Tisha was one of the brightest shining people I had ever met! I was fortunate to meet her a few times and once at radio station...I may have had some influence on encouraging her to get out and hike more places in Oahu, which she eventually made time for, and exceeded my nerve on some scary hikes! She will be sorely missed, but there is some peace knowing she is home with Jesus and we will all be reunited one day...much love, prayers, and Aloha in Christ to all her family and friends!

Was blessed to know and sporadically work with Tisha, Her joy was infectious and her legacy in the Lord will span generations.

Tisha has always been my inspiration to live and conquer anything given to you. I met Tisha at Inspire Church Waikele, she was a guest speaker and full of life.
Since then, we messengered each other everyday.
Heaven received a beautiful angel, full of Joy. We'll all me up again one day. My continued prayers for Jason and the Ohana. Please give them strength, peace and comfort. Trisha will be missed but never ever forgotten. RIP Tisha, we love you.

Today remembering Tish in her younger years. Sure will miss you, cousin. May God comfort Jason and fur babies, Donna, Brad and family during this difficult time. ((hugs)) Love you all

Tisha was a kind soul and had such a beautiful spirit. I would listen to her on the radio and she always brightened my day. She is so loved.

I moved to Hawaii in 1997, was saved a couple weeks later at Hope Chapel, and Tisha, under Ralph, was my first pastor. She saw me, a quiet introvert new to Hawaii and to the faith. She invited me and included me and made me feel important and special and taught me what it was to walk with Jesus and have a personal relationship with Him. She baptized me on Kailua beach. I would not be the woman I am today if she had not noticed me and loved on me like she did to so many other people. She will be greatly missed!!

I remember the courtship days of Tisha and Jason. Then seeing these two blossoms from friendship to a married couple.
I only had a very small part in helping Jason. He had to do the rest.
Will miss the dynamic duo. Prayers for God's comforting arms to surround us all as we miss the very smiling standard of Tisha throughout her entire journey. Heaven with Whoop Whoop happening!

We never met personally, but you married a guy I have loved for years! Jason and his family changed my life. And it is clear to me that you helped change his life. I love you, friend, and we will meet one day. Love you my dear friend.

I didn't personally know Tisha, but my friend from California shared her journey with me on FB. I fell in love with her spirit. She was such an inspiration. It was such an honor to pray for her.

Dear Jason,

Our sincere condolences. I (Daphne) met Tisha at a Hope Chapel women´s retreat somewhere around 2000. She lit up the room no matter where she was and Jesus was just a part of her! Aloha, Daphne and Bruce Castor

Just a truly beautiful person inside and out. God Bless and comfort her Ohana and fur babies too

I moved to Hawaii in 2018 to be with my daughter and her family! I met Tisha at Inspire church and she was an instant sister. Her smile, her love (for Jesus) We instantly connected. I will never forget this day and the continued friendship developed through social media. My hearts to not hear her voice but I know she is in the glory of Gods Love and open arms. Please continued to guide me in faith and what I have to look forward too! Forever my sister in Christ! I love you

Although we never met and precious Tisha never knew who I was, I loved her and how God used her in my life over the years through social media. As an RN, I understood her journey to the extent that she shared. I prayed for Tisha...fervently. I am confident that all of our prayers were answered by a good, merciful and loving Father. Many lives were changed and impacted by Tisha´s courageous testimony, love for God´s creation and devotion to family, friends and ministry. Tisha is whole and home in her Savior´s arms. I´m grateful that one day I will hug her and thank her for "giving to the Lord, it was my life that was changed". May God send sweet comfort to all that love her and await that day as well. From New York, sending love and prayers

I met Tisha and Jason in 2017 on our first deployment with Samaritan´s Purse Disaster Relief after Hurricane Harvey hit the Houston, Texas area. It was so evident that God would be doing great things through this very special couple. I treasure that time as it was the only time that we met on this side of heaven. I live in South Carolina, but I never forgot the impact of their presence. We have stayed in touch through social media, an occasional text, and many prayers. What a bright and shining star she was and it was all Him. I will see her again one glorious day...and Jason also! Be she lives in our hearts to inspire us to live a life of exclamations...all for His glory!

Tisha had a smile and personality that lit up a room. So filled with the love of Jesus. She shared that love everywhere she went. She will surely be missed. Until we meet again. We love you. Bonnie
