to Elizabeth's family...I was a teacher at Central Cabarrus during the late 80's and early 90's and taught Elizabeth. She was, even then, radiantly beautiful, confident, and self-assured. I knew she was destined for success. I know you are very proud of her. May your lovely memories of her comfort you. God bless you.
