Utterly shocked when I heard the news of Liz's passing. Couldn't believe someone who loved life, attacked life , and spread joy everywhere could no longer be with us. Please know that my prayers have been with her family.

Russell and family, So sorry for your loss. Remember the good times. Andy Healy Greenwich Old friend from Marco International/SND

I was absolutely stunned and saddened when I received word from Brad Gilliatt that Liz had passed away. I had the good fortune of getting to know Liz, and the other members of The Crowded House, while working together for The State News at MSU. She was a ball of energy with a great sense of humor. Many laughs and good times were shared, both at the office and inside The Crowded House, and I'd often wondered over the years what became of those crazy gals. Very hard to accept that she's no...

My sincere condolences to Liz´s family We went to St.Regis & Marion High school together! I´m so very sorry to hear of her passing

I remember Liz from Marian high school. We were in the same class. She had true "sparkle" and a great sense of humor, and was just so fun to be around. My fondest memories of her are from field day, when she would give pump up speeches and try to rally the class. My heart goes out to her family and friends. She has left this world way too early. I know she will be dearly missed.

I had the privilege of not only working with Liz at G&K but becoming good friends with her and Russ. I'll share a few memories: 1. She had an internal office at G&K and would go into her "cave" with her headset on at 8AM and emerge - tired but enthusiastic - after 5PM having been on the phone all day. 2. She would invoke her East Coast accent and joke about "soups and sauces" and calling your "muhtha" (sorry for the spelling). My boys and I joke about this to this day. 3. She was so kind...
