Karen and I have loved Elizabeth for years and have always enjoyed her interesting personality and musical talent, including her recordings of her piano music. We enjoyed our many visits in her home and at her last home. She always had interesting stories to tell us and wonderful friends to introduce us to. We have missed close contact as we have been away and she moved. We have thought of her often, and will miss our visits until a later reunion. Bless you all in the family. You have a...

Grandmother to my grandchildren, mother to my "daughter" and mother to my good friend a loving and wonderful friend. She had a sparkle that age didn't dim I am so happy for you, Elizabeth. You aare back with your true love. God keep your memory bright in our lives.

Elizabeth was such a gracious lady and dear friend to all members of the Utah Symphony and Opera Guilds and the Pioneer Theatre Guild. Always so kind and generous she will be missed, especially by me, as I thought that she would forever be here. Our love to the family.

One of my favorite memories of Sister Monson was back in the 70's when Kris and I would be listening to "Jackson 5" records in her bedroom (we were the same age as Michael). Sister Monson would walk down the hall in slippers and peak her head in, giggle, and say "You girls are so silly!". She would have her daschund, Trudy, clutched under her arm.

Memories of Elizabeth bring back the
picture of a gracious lady, a woman
of great talent, a devoted mother and grandmother and a spiritual
giant. She will ever be remembered
for the great example she was to us.

I was delighted to spend a couple of wonderful dinners with Sister Monson. She was a wonderful, witty woman with a keen sense of humor.
Heartfelt sympathies to her children and grandchildren.

Kris,
Sweet write-up about your mom and our dear friend. I see the resemblance between the two of you in her early picture!! I already sent my remembrances to you of your mom last week, but wanted you to know I love your family and will remember you far away here in Brazil!

My mother, Eileen O'Hara, lives at the Parklane too, and Elizabeth was one of her favorite people. We all thought Elizabeth was just the best: gracious and funny and warm. I know she was eager to rejoin her husband, but she'll be sorely missed.

I only new Elizabeth for a short time at Parklane apartments where she was living. She was a very sweet lady. My mom Eileen O'Hara became very good friends. She will be missed very much at Parklane.
God bless you all at this time in you like.
