I appreciate Christopher's thoughtful obituary.  I am deeply saddened by Lisa's death and so sorry for your enormous loss. She was a valued friend for many years, since we roomed together in our doctoral program.  She contributed immeasurably to my personal and professional growth and left me many treasured memories.  My  heart is with Lisa's beloved  Christopher and  beloved  "Becker women." Christopher, she bragged about you often.  You were a part of every conversation.

Lisa left me a silver teapot of her mother's. I would like to pass this on to Christopher to keep or pass along to other family.  I would love to share  thoughts and memories if you like.  I will text a photo of the teapot if you give me contact information.
