LISA MOVITZ Obituary

MOVITZ, Lisa Ann (Friedman) Of Natick, passed away peacefully on Monday, August 25, 2025, at the age of 59, after a valiant five-year battle with stomach cancer.

Over the course of decades, she became a trusted professional at several prominent law firms and corporations, including Brown Rudnick, Boston Scientific, Raytheon, and most recently SharkNinja. Lisa was an exceptionally warm and loving mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. She was the heart of her family, keeping everyone connected by hosting holidays and milestone celebrations. Her friends knew her as caring and fun-loving, always the one who would schedule and plan get-togethers from traveling near and far to watching Patriots games at her and Lou's house. She was also an avid animal lover who cherished her dogs: Fuzzball, Oscar, and Penny.

Earlier today

Lisa and I were classmates at Albany Academy for Girls. She was a friend to everyone in the class, liked and appreciated by all of us for her gentle kindness, her easy smile, and her open heart. She was always the tallest in the class and carried her height with such grace. She undoubtedly shared those qualities of kindness and grace throughout her life with all those she touched and with her loving family. I wish you all peace and strength amidst this terrible loss.

Dear Lou,

Laurie and I were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of your beloved wife, Lisa. Please accept our heartfelt condolences during this incredibly difficult time.

Lisa was a remarkable woman-sharp, generous, and full of spirit. I still remember when you first met her while working for me so many years ago. You told me she was the one, and you closed that deal with more conviction than any case we ever worked on. You two built a beautiful life together, and we hope those memories bring comfort to you and your family now.

We had the privilege of witnessing the love and strength you both shared, especially during your daughters´ weddings and bat mitzvahs. Lisa was a devoted mother and a high-end paralegal whose presence elevated every room she entered. Her pride in Brooke and Danielle was unmistakable-whether cheering at Fenway when Brooke got proposed to on the big screen, or beaming about Danielle´s journey through Duke Law.

In this time of mourning, may you find solace in the traditions and prayers of our faith. May Lisa´s memory be a blessing, and may you be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.


Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

With deepest sympathy,
Laurie and Alan Packer

Words cannot express how sad we are hearing of Lisa´s passing. She was more than a co-worker and friend - she was a wonderful person. Sending our deepest condolences to Lou, Brooke, Danielle, and her entire family.

Such a tragic loss after a long, brave fight. Lisa was a classmate at AAG. I have always remembered her vision for herself: to have a family and be a warm, devoted mother and wife. We all, including Lisa, had ambitions for college and beyond, but she was always clear: children, family, and community first. I am not surprised she raised such lovely daughters, and I am sure it pained her terribly to say goodbye to them too soon.

Lisa was a wonderful person with a kind heart. I learned so much from Lisa as a young professional. She was a joy to be around. May her memory be a blessing.

I was a classmate of Lisa's at the Albany Academy for Girls from Kindergarten through grade 8. I have many happy memories of Lisa from that period in our lives and remember playdates and meals at the Friedman house in Albany. My sincere condolences to Dr. & Mrs. Friedman, Marcy, Lisa's husband and children. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
