I have been dreading this news since I last exchanged emails with Emily last spring. Emily and I were friends since our first year of college at UCLA. I admired her throughout her life and career. My deepest condolences to you, Lisa, and to Jesse. Svetlana

I saw the film "Town Destroyer" on PBS TV and noticed that Lisa & Emily Honig's names were on the credits as sponsors. They were campers with me at Camp Tawonga in the 1960s.

Couldn't find an address, e- or otherwise, for Lisa, hence this communication. We are so sorry at this news. We have the greatest respect and admiration for your family, and know how much you must be suffering. ...

I attended High School with Emily and Lisa Honig. With a wide circle of friends, we shared hiking, cooking, poetry, intense conversation, music, and laughter. She was learning photography at the time and archived moments of our lives. Thru the years, I kept up with her through other high school friends. I am grateful for her intelligence, artistry, and kind heart. I am awed by her extraordinary energy and purpose, shown once again in the way she lived after her diagnosis. Emily remains in my...
