June 11, 1953 – December 20, 2023

Lisa would often phone me. Often it was to remind me of a birthday that I should acknowledge with a photo, Sometimes the conversation would begin without any context. There was never an introductory “Hello John, this is Lisa”. It was up to me to figure out who I was chatting with. The narrative would start and it took a moment to realize with whom I was talking. I’ll miss those calls. She always referred to her husband Chris as “your cousin” which gave me a sense of inclusion in whatever was going on in their world. I can hear those conversations now in my mind.

Photos

I loved photographing Lisa. She had a very expressive face and one of the best eye rolls I have ever seen. If she heard something that deserved an eye roll, she would look askance and let it fly. Sadly I was never able to capture it on camera. However I’d like to share the photos I do have.
