From Sue Becker

I first met Liz in a supervision class for psychotherapists. Besides her insightful comments and questions, I was struck by her unconventional dress--colorful stockings  and shoes, unusual pants, compared to my very conventional attire. She dressed in style, often with accessories she found at the Goodwill store. I saw her as avant guard in her dress and demeanor. She expressed herself in a very unique way, which reflected her independence  and sense of freedom. She was not concerned about what others would think of her, as evidenced in her relationship with Sam, her alcoholic friend and lover.

As a clinician she always saw her clients in the context of their family and community--not as separate persons but part of a whole context of people.

She was fun too, before she got so tired and worn out. She laughed a lot, was cool, and loved the dinner parties with  the dinner gang who staged an elaborate party every month. She was a social animal , enjoying dining in style with this special group of friends. She knew how to relax and enjoy life.
