My oldest dearest friend

We are approaching a year since you left this world. There is not a day gone by that I don't think of you and I miss you as much today as I did a year ago.
You were the best friend a girl could ever have and I am grateful that you chose me as yours. We shared so much in the 44 years we were friends.
From high school to marriage, children, your grandchildren, death of loved ones, laughs, tears, we shared it all. We had such great times, going to New York, our cottage trips, our dancing, the BB's and too many others to list. I am so blessed to have had all these years with you. You were an amazing woman. I am sure your legacy will live on in many as you touched so many hearts with yours. Rest in peace my dear friend. Until me meet again.
I hope you are dancing in the sky.

Love
Kim

To Liz's children and their spouses, her grandchildren, her husband and Liz's siblings and her extended family. I am deeply sorry for the loss of Liz. She will truly be missed not only by her family but by her friends and co-workers. I have had the greatest pleasure of being one of those friends for over 40 years. For a small woman she has big shoes to fill. But no one will ever be able to do just that. We have shared many memories including laughter and tears. She was a remarkable lady and has left her mark in this life for many. I shall treasure every moment. Knowing that she left this world surrounded by her loved ones was a blessing and I know Liz would be proud. She will always remain my closest and dearest friend and I know some day we will meet again. She will forever remain a BB in our hearts.
To the power of 8.

My children and I were saddened to hear of Liz's passing. We were patients of Liz. I would always request to see her specifically. She was such a dedicated and gentle person, completely devoted to her children and family.

To the Butler and Crosbie Families,
May you take comfort in the knowledge that you did everything humanly possible to make Liz comfortable and loved in her final months and days. She was so proud of all of you.
Please know that you share this loss with so many people whose lives your mom touched. I know my life will never be the same and I will never have a friend like Liz again.
Love and hugs
Brenda

My sincere condolences to Liz's family and extended family. I got to know Liz through my many visits as a patient at Dr. Schooley's office. She was wonderful, very positive, always caring and thoughtful. I will really miss not seeing her. She was always filling me in about the family, she so adored. She was very special lady. My thoughts are with the family.
