The marriage to Barton, however, was coming to an end. In 1962 she married Robert "Bob" xxx, the man who would still be her life partner some 45 years later. At the time, Bob was doing the Interior Design for model homes for the Tony Pereira Design Firm. She had known Bob for some time, often water skiing with him and enjoying his sense of humor. That same year, she appeared as "Anybodys" in a San Diego production of West Side Story which starred the original Broadway leading man, Larry Kert and Carla Alberghett, sister of Anna Maria Alberghetti. Although the production was slated to go on an extended tour, the show - and Lizanne's show business career - came to an end. On May 26, 1964, she gave birth to a son, David, and unsatisfied with the rejection and uncertainty of show business, she completely gave it up for a more fulfilling life as wife and mother. Bob began his own business and the family moved to California. When asked who her inspirations were, she quickly cited her brother who is a Jesuit Priest and her early dance teacher, Mildred Lyons. She recalled that Mildred was the person in her life who gave Lizanne her focus and determination, at one time saying to her: "Do you want to dance or go to the School Prom?" Looking at her career, her dance did take her to multiple Proms all over the world and into the hearts of those who saw - and will continue to see her.
