I'm sending my sympathy to Liz's family, she was one of a kind. For 20 years I was in and out of her office as a court reporter. She would invite me into her office for a cup of coffee when we had time and it was decorated beautifully. We talked a lot and always had very enjoyable conversations. What a wonderful woman, my sincere condolences, Mona D. Woodring

My sincere condolences to the Seyfried family for their loss of Liz. Thankfully she went to her eternal resting place in Heaven with Jesus. I only met her a few times, but because they were with various members of your family, at church related events, they were always pleasant. God bless you all!
