ELIZABETH KUTYLA-MINER

To the family and friends of Liz,
I'm terribly saddened to learn of Liz' untimely death. Having lost touch with her for the past several years, I'm stunned at this news. She was, in many ways, larger than life - so vibrant, loving and kind. She introduced me to my first employer in Miami, where she had worked during a law school summer. We shared many laughs; she lit up the room with her smile. I can't imagine the world without her. I wish peace to all Liz' family and friends.

I just read the sad news in the UC law school record. My deep condolences to Liz's husband, family, and friends. She was a strong, beautiful woman, and it's very hard to believe she's gone.

My condolences to the Kutyla-Miner family...Liz was one of my U of C law school classmates and she stood out for her warmth, humor, and kindness. She was truly unforgettable. I am so sorry to hear that she has passed.

Dear Family and Friends of Liz,

I’m so saddened to learn of Liz’s death, and though it has been fifteen years since I last saw her, she seems extraordinarily present. I was at U of C with Liz, in college and a few years behind her in law school, and she was powerfully, thoroughly engaged with whatever she was doing and anyone who was with her. She was terrifically funny and wise and caring and tough – all in the space of a few minutes. There was nothing Liz did that didn’t seem to...

Dear Family:
I am truly saddened to learn of Liz's passing. Liz and I worked at Sonnenschein and she was the cherished friend during my time in Chicago. Although we lost touch I am reminded of a funny Liz-like in San Francisco. It was a beautiful day, long after I'd left Chicago for San Francisco - I was walking down Fillmore Street. I heard a familiar voice yell "Fermino" - she always called me by last name. She ran across the streeet and gave me a great hug and we talked as if no...

Dear Family ...

I am very saddened by your loss. I worked with Liz at Barton and I was impressed by her sincerity and love of life from the moment I met her.

Although we had not been in touch, I learned of her struggle and journey from a mutual friend and prayed for her healing. Sometimes God answers our prayers in ways we do not expect. I believe He healed her and took her home. I know that Heaven smiles because of her presence there.

She told me so...

I knew Liz from the U. of Chicago and from a bar review class we had together in 1987. Beautiful, smart, funny, tough...all these describe her but just scratch the surface.

My sincere condolences to family and friends.
