Description Small gold chain necklace belonging to Lisa Caren Ehrlich. The necklace includes a circular gold frame pendant containing a color portrait of Lisa and her young sons, Myles and Ryan.
Historical Notes Born in Brooklyn, Lisa Ehrlich lived in the Midwood neighborhood with her husband, Jonathan, and her two sons. She enjoyed bowling and played on the company team at Aon Corporation, where she worked as a relationship manager. On September 11, Lisa was in her office on the 105th floor of the South Tower. She was 36 years old.
Curator's Comment Lisa Ehrlich’s son Myles recalled that his mother wore this necklace with her name on it almost every day. He wrote that she was “my best friend in the world.” The other necklace holds a picture of Lisa with sons Myles and Ryan. Coworkers remembered how often she talked about them, sharing photos, anecdotes, and how much she loved her boys. In the months before 9/11, she was helping Myles prepare for his bar mitzvah and told a colleague she was trying to teach both children to be more independent. HIDE
