Vestry

Lisa grew up in Pasadena, CA, attended Princeton University and George Washington University School of Medicine. After her residency at University of Southern California in Los Angeles, she married Princeton classmate Michael in 1987 and moved to the Stamford/Darien, CT area where she practiced obstetrics and gynecology. The family relocated to Sharon, MA in 2005 and later moved to Plainville. Lisa discovered St. Paul’s in 2006 after a long search but could only attend every other Sunday when she wasn’t on call, until her retirement in 2014.

Originally from New Hampshire, Pat has lived in Westwood since 1989. A church search led her to St. Paul’s in 2006 where she discovered a community where she and Christine Farnsworth could comfortably worship together, Chris having been raised Episcopalian and Pat from the Roman Catholic tradition. On a beautiful May afternoon in 2010, Pat was received into the Episcopal church. The community of St. Paul’s was a lifeline for Pat during a challenging period of caregiving during Chris’ physical and medical decline which resulted in her death in 2017, ending their life of 30 years together.
