[OSList] Lisa Kimball Carlson

Yes Alan, Lisa was a joy to know and a fantastic network weaver. She had a rare talent for bringing people together and suggesting “why don’t you come; I think you will like them, they are your kind of people..."
It was that kind of suggestion that brought me down to Australia where I met you and other members of the OS community. She was right! What a treat it was! And it started right after landing. Lisa and I picked up Peggy at the airport and we drove together to Marysville. That is how I met Peggy for the first time. I don’t remember what we talked about but I definitely remember that it was one non-stop animated conversation all the way to Marysville.
Some years later I used with Lisa her own method of suggestion to sweet talk her into joining the board of Plexus Institute, “why don’t you join …your kind of people...”. Lisa brought endless energy and her network weaving talent to the Institute. She was always full of ideas. She never quit.

Yes Peggy, Lisa will be missed but she left a piece of her in many of us and enduring memories.

Thank you Lisa it has been a privilege to know you,

Henri Lipmanowicz

G'day All

The note from Anne Stadler brought to my mind that it was Lisa Kimball who has died recently. 

I have lovely memories of Lisa from our personal connecting when she and Henri Lipmanowicz - both closely associated with the Plexus Institute - participated in OSonOS OZ in Marysville, near Melbourne in 2002. Such fun we had 
at that wondrous gathering. And when I was on a PhD panel which met near Washington, DC. After which she invited me to visit with her and her husband at their home there for a few days. 

Our online connecting began in about 1997 with what she pioneered with Civic Net. Which morphed into Group Jazz, <http://groupjazz.com/> one component of which was virtual online conferences which she called Chautauqua. On which I was privileged to present 
on 'The Conversing Company' <http://www.pnc.com.au/~lfell/vienna.pdf>. Harrison was one of her previous presenters.

Lisa was a joy to know.

Oh. Lisa Kimball. I’m so sad to hear of her passing. She wasn’t that old!

Lisa was smart, creative and a trail blazer in so many ways. She supported early experiments with technology that connects like Metanet and later with Group Jazz. She’s also been a a leader around liberating structures. And part of the Plexus Institute.

I found a picture of her online. Naturally, she’s with a computer!

I can’t believe she’s gone.

She will be missed,
Peggy
