Liz you made us smile when you booty bumped that jukebox during Scapino and chased away the Jennings vagrant. Andiamo! All one had to do was see your bright eyes and infectious smile and even a negative person such as myself felt better. I wish I had told you when I had a chance. We miss you.

For some reason, I needed to read the Guest Book for Lizz tonight, and finally write my entry to her family. I could write for hours about Lizz so I will try to keep my entry short and simple. Lizz touched my life in so many ways, she picked me up when I was down, she taught me to always forgive others and not live with guilt, she told me how she admired my ability to be a single mother and raise my young daughter on my own, she expressed how much she wanted to be a mother one day ... And how she loved the name "Sloan" and hoped to use it to name one of her future children, she made me feel beautiful when I was at the lowest point in my life. There will never be another soul like her, ever. As I recently told my sister this - For some reason, I can't believe I don't have Lizz to hug me, to tell me I'm beautiful, to have a TRUE Artist color, cut and style my hair, to just watch her passion for her work and her love for others. Lizz worked her tail end off for every dime she made! I will never meet another Lizz. Her loss has impacted my life in so many ways; and to her family, I cannot imagine your pain. Lizz will live through us forever. May God continue to comfort and keep you standing when you feel like falling. I will ALWAYS miss your sweet Lizz.

Miss you already Liz.
It was a privilege and an honor to share the stage and this world with you. Your smile, company, and laugh will remain in memory. You taught me the importance of making time for friends now, not next week.
Now just come back.
There will always be a seat for you in my restaurant and a place in my heart.

It was always a pleasure to spend time with Lizz. She was an amazing, caring young woman with talent to spare. Lizz was like a shooting star --- she was a bright light in our lives which was gone much too soon. She made a difference in my life and I was blessed to call her my friend. My heart hurts, especially for her family....and you remain in my prayers.

Lizz was my stylist and my friend. She was so personable and easy to be around She loved her pets and really loved her husband and family. She was such a go getter. It's heartbreaking to lose her, and Heaven is pretty blessed to have a new angel join them. Have a good journey, Lizz.

I was a client of Lizz's for several years. She always seemed happy and full of energy. When I remember her I hear her singing to the music she played in her salon. Praying God will embrace family and friends with comfort, peace and understanding as you deal with this loss. May Lizz rest in peace.
