I'm not sure how I missed this three years ago but I searched online on a whim today and this popped up. It's good to see she made such an impact. I can tell you she was a complicated person with a lot of ambivalence about math, and she would have been really touched by your blog. I think I remember her talking about you a couple of times and enjoying correspondence. It's also entertaining to me to see you knew her by her maiden name, though she never legally changed it back after divorcing in 1973. I know she wanted to, but couldn't quite navigate the legal hoops to get there, and didn't want to spend the money. I hope your life is going well, Elise.
