Before Beth became ill, she and I would aften walk together. She was always so interested in me and my family and would ask lots of questions. And she would share all of her interests and concerns. I have a tile of a redwinged black bird she made for me and a painting of a redwinged black bird made by a local artist that she gave me. She was a wonderful friend, and I have so many fond memories.

Dear Roll Family,
I had the privilege of getting to know this beautiful lady back in 2019. I have thought of her through the years and I have since moved away from NM. This morning, Elizabeth popped into my mind and I decided to 'google' her and learned that she very recently died. Maybe it's coincidence that I thought of Elizabeth today or maybe God wanted for me to think of her at this time? I am thinking of her and lovingly wishing her peace. I will keep your wonderful wife and mom in my thoughts and prayers. God bless your family at this time of great sorrow.
