To My Dearest Liza,

Oh Liza, we miss you so much!

Mom and I are in agony every day. The anguish we feel is unbearable and total. We still can’t accept that you are gone. This is a nightmare that we want to awaken from.

Liza, I miss you so much.!

For 29 years, you filled our lives with absolute joy and bliss. You were such a good child never upsetting Mom or me. As a teen, you blossomed into a fine young woman who did well in school and on the...

There was always a light that Liza cast on those around her. Her bubbly personality and cheerful charm made it easy for others to gravitate to her. We met Liza while all working together at Sport Chalet and from day one we could tell that we were going to be friends. We're so thankful for the time we got to spend together and to watch her family grow. You will be deeply missed and forever in our hearts and thoughts.

I feel so lucky to have known Liza! She was such an amazing mother and friend. We met through a mommy and me class where Elizabeth and Nathan became fast friends. It was very comforting for us while taking Nathan to speech therapy at Progressive Steps to see Elizabeth and Liza. Nathan felt so much better having a friend at therapy with him. Liza was so proud of her children! The incredible strides Elizabeth made in her speech and Joey sitting up so early. I will hold many precious memories of...

I had the pleasure of first meeting Liza at CSUN back in '99 through our campus sorority Alpha Xi Delta. We had an instant connection during the rush process and she became my Little Sis. That was the start of so many fun times and so many memories that have brought such joy to my life. I am so thankful to have known her, and to have watched her beautiful family grow. My thoughts and prayers go out to her parents, to John, her children and her extended family.

Thank you Liza for...

The news of Liza's passing hit me like a ton of bricks. How can a person with so much life, and happiness and love, suddenly be taken from us? I miss her dearly but keep her alive through my many memories and experiences we shared together.

When I think of love, I think of the glow Liza had when it came to her family. She called me up after meeting John at work and talked obsessively about how cute the guy was. It was as if there was an instant connection. Then when Elizabeth was...

I remember the first time John told me about you, his face lit up and he couldn't stop smiling I could tell he was in LOVE! He never stopped smiling,you were truly the love of his life. After getting to know you our whole family quickly felt in LOVE too! Thank you for being such a loving wife, mother and daughter-in-law! We love you and miss you everyday.
Love Cliff and Teri

I will start with the day before you were born. January 5, 1980 was my wedding day. Your mom Lori was my maid of honor. She was as big as a house but smiled and stood by my side as my life with Jim started. The next morning you were born. I had Summer July 1981 and you were her first friend. I'll always remember good times at the pool, disneyland, zoo ect. Words cannot express my feelings of deepist sorrow for Lori and Len. I feel guilty..I have 3 daughters and my sister has lost her one...

Although we are 3000 miles away there are the times that I can remember shotputting you into the pool or seeing you watersking at lake tahoe or giving me the red carpet treatment when I or grandpa len flew out to visit you. There are too many memories that I can remember but not space to write. Hope to see you again in the penthose.Uncle Rick and Family
