Lisa shared this on her Facebook page:

Your support has been overwhelming! I have no words to express my gratitude and sincere love for your kindness! As promised, a brief look at the jewelry I’m bringing to Big Bonanza! The original “flower ring” is back at the same price as it was in 2010! Brand new matching flower earrings, a new bracelet and an elongated cocktail ring! And waiting in the wings, a special item that GIno and I designed together! I will have item numbers soon. I’ll see you at 2 am and again at 1 pm next Tuesday on QVC!!! Thank you!

Thank you for posting that from Lisa Mason. Now, SHE was a GOOD host! Too bad Gino's health and her own health issues ended her career at QVC. She was one of my favorites of all time. I'm glad though that she is moving forward in her life after Gino's untimely death.

She really is the sweetest person.

She replied to a letter I sent her once

about her book and it was such a loving heartfelt reply. I think she is very sincere and caring to each person she encounters.

@on the bay That reply that she took the time to send shows what a loving and warm person she is. Gino was fortunate to have such a precious caregiver and lover.

@Nonametoday -

Yes, I was thinking of those same words to describe her-"loving and warm."

She and Gino both seemed to have such a loving, special relationship.

I guess that's what happens when you put two kind and loving people together.

I was always a big fan of Lisa Mason. As a host, she came across as a sincere, down to earth and relatable person. She often spoke of her beloved Gino "the big Hawaiian" as the love of her life and her happiness showed. I follow her Facebook page where she shared her journey with Gino as he battled cancer and eventually lost. She was open and honest about her grief and she kept it real. It was also heartening to see how many of her old QVC friends (hosts and vendors alike) were there for her and supported her as she began life after Gino. I'm thrilled to see her come back to QVC. She's a class act all the way.

As a host, she exuded a sincerity and serenity, and was easy to listen to. Unfortunately, that seems to be passé at QVC. The current selling style is in-your-face hard-sell. 👎

@handygal2

What I liked about Lisa Mason too...she was honest in her sales approach, if she was talking to a caller and didnt feel that the product was going to work for them she would say so, and added "that she wanted them to be happy with their purchase....and maybe there was something else in the show that would better fit their needs and even at a better price".....She seemed sincere in caring about the customers being happy with what they purchased ....

ITA, she was a wonderful host. The first time I discovered the Q, many years ago, she was the host that was on and I was amazed at how lovely she was and so soft spoken.

A true gem ! It was so sad that she lost her husband so young. I am happy to see her moving forward and that she'll be back on QVC. I wasn't aware she had her own designs so I am really looking forward to something new and refreshing!

I really liked her presentation style, but loved the fact that her voice was so soft, calm and easy to listen to....such a pleasure! And so different from many of the current hosts who seem to think that yelling or speaking loudly will make a sale!

@corita I agree!

In addition, I loved Lisa's sense of humor especially with Valerie or the vendor from Black Hills Gold.

Oh, Corita, I too remember what a good broadcasting voice Lisa Mason had. She also had such a good demeanor, and she was great at talking to people on the phone calls.

MBR made a special announcement on air today about being on tomorrow with Lisa in the 1 PM hour ET.

This will be an excellent opportunity for everyone to show her how much she is loved and missed, by purchasing lots of her jewelry!!

That's wonderful news! I have the flower ring,and stud earrings she sold years ago.

@DottieBlue I always liked Lisa Mason as a host but no way would I buy jewelry just to show my love and support for a salesperson!

Tessa Mendoza — Tue, 03 Mar 2020 05:09:52 GMT

I so enjoyed Lisa and agree with others about how calm and soothing her voice was.

I remember once she said how the item she was selling was such a great price, that maybe you should consider buying more than one...if you could swing it. Not to overspend if you really can't afford to at this time.

Can you imagine any of the newer hosts saying something like that?

I set my TV to record the 1:00 PM show tomorow.
