I will certainly miss my beautiful friend Liz - words cannot express how thankful I am to have shared a path in this lifetime with her wonderful friendship. We've shared thousands of hours in deep conversations via the phone as well as in lifetime experiences, from Vegas excursions, Puerto Vallarta, volunteering, thrift shopping, Pig Roasts, family celebrations, and more. Her Birthday was on Christmas, as a child she got a new pair of shoes, one shoe for Christmas, the other shoe for her Birthday. Her 1st surprise birthday party was at age 40.
Liz was amazingly creative and was incredibly talented with using her hands, from refurbishing a house including laying the tile, painting, landscaping, and most anything else. She had a talent for restoring old furniture (chairs, etc.) and she had a great artistic flare for painting designs on tables, cabinets, walls and much more. She loved hats and one of her many talents was as a hair-dresser. She donated her time to do hair for lots of other people, just because...just because "she cared about others, and wanted them to feel good about themselves".
Thank you Liz for sharing this life path, I love you and look forward to reuniting in heaven. Liz you are a shining star!
Blessings and Love to her family and loved ones. xoxo

I was the lucky one to have Miss Lizbet in my life. She was always there when I needed her with acceptance and love. Such an effortless, creative artist. I will miss her wonderful smile and soft kiss.

Liz has been my go to girl for the last 15 years. I am quite lost at the moment at the thought of never being able to call her again. She was a wonderful and loyal friend, with more character in her little finger than most have in their entire body. I love you Liz and miss you so much. Fly High my Friend!

Went to NHS with "Bissie". She was a kind person to everyone and a good friend to all. Another "angel" has her wings!
