I love and miss you Liz. All of our conversations about the husbands, kids and grandkids. I have 13 grands now and 2 great grands. Boy, have things changed since you left us. Tell Gene I said hi and that I miss him terrible as well. I miss him pulling jokes and pranks on us. Rest in Paradise both of you. I love and miss you both every day.

May God send His Angels to fly you home to heaven and Gene. You have so earned your rest hon. God protect and comfort your family, especially the kids. We were friends since 7th gr. and FB reconnected us! Such a small world compared to the joy we will all have when we meet again. God bless you, Liz, and your loved ones.

You're not around, but your memories still remain captured in our hearts. You were like an angel that came and made our lives beautiful, and now that you are in heaven, we know you are doing the same.
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.

To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.

I am still reeling, just astounded! With our friendship of 36 years, we were young girls when we met, & shared so many, many good times, laughs, a few tears along the way, & the private talks & jokes that longtime friends share, sometimes letting our husbands & children in on the jokes. Liz did a wonderful, caring act for my Grandchildren & me just last Halloween & I am still & will forever be touched by it, as well as so many memories. Love and whatever I can do for Liz's children & Grandchildren. Rest in Paradise, Liz, reunited with Gene, your parents, baby boy & all who went before you. Love and Miss You

Liz, I will miss a lots of things but most of all I will miss your laugh.
Selina and Dylan, Grandma had so many dreams for both of you. There is nothing more she wanted was for the two of you to succeed in life. The dreams that you shared with her please make them reality so both of you will be living the dream. She loved both of you very much.
Shannon, I hope you remembered when we talked and laughed on how funny that Mom and I were friends but stranger things have been known to happen I guess.
Steven, I really have only spoken to you a few times but wish we had gotten to know each other better.
I know the pain you are going through and my heart hurts for all of you.
Just remember this life we have here is just a short stop to the eternal life we will have in Heaven. She will always be alive in your hearts and I hope you keep this in mind as time goes on.
My prayers and love are with you always I will always be no more than a phone call away.
Love
