I'm crushed to hear of Helen Fisher's passing. I had texted her on Friday not knowing about her illness. She was a remarkable woman and someone who grew to be a friend. May her memory be a blessing. nytimes.com/2024/08/23/scien…

Helen Fisher, Who Researched the Brain’s Love Circuitry, Dies at 79 (Published 2024)

A biological anthropologist, she worked with colleagues to confirm for the first time that love is hard-wired in the brain.

I’m still in shock over this tragedy. Lori touched so many lives with her happy outlook and wonderful smile. And her smarts. Broken hearted friends can’t process this sad news.

Beyond shocked and heartbroken. I talked to Lori yesterday while I was boarding a flight. She made me laugh so hard that people stared and wanted in on the fun. statesman.com/story/news/loc…
