I was so very sorry to receive the news of Liz's passing. We didn't know one another while students at Cornell College, but enjoyed chatting now and then for the past several years on social media. I'll miss that. Her family has my sincerest condolences.

John and Kristen,

My deepest sympathy to you for Liz's passing. I have known her for almost 40 years, and her persistence, resilience, and grace under duress has been nothing short of inspirational. She always had a smile, no matter what difficulties she faced, and she is an unsung hero in my life. May her memory and spirit live on, in you and in all who knew her.
