I am certain that Elizabeth is the sweet lady by whom we sat for many UK football games. We always looked forward to being beside she and her sister. They always brought special treats for our daughter if they learned she was attending with us. In fact, I think I still have a Christmas party invitation that she mailed us. We weren't able to attend, but I can picture the home that was on the front of the note card. Such fun memories, we talk about it often.
Thoughts and prayers to the family.
