In 1959, she married Richard, her loving husband of 65 years, and devoted her life to home and family.
A woman of faith, she was a founding member of Holy Family Church in Enfield and gave of her time and treasure to Catholic initiatives for many years.
Bette was humble and unassuming. She found joy in the successes of her immediate and extended family. She took great care and pride in finding and giving the perfect card and gift for special occasions.
Blessed with an incredible memory until her final days, she was an avid reader/viewer of current news and spiritual publications/programming.
Elizabeth will be remembered as a willful soul, devoted wife, loving mother, caring sister, and thoughtful aunt and grandmother. She leaves behind her son, Richard E. Fournier, Jr., and his wife, Karen, and her four precious grandchildren, who referred to her as "Nonny": Ryan and his wife, Zoila; Alyssa and her husband, Eduardo; Danielle and her wife, Mandi; and Paige and her partner, Josh. She was a proud great-grandmother to Charlie and Viviana Fournier. She is also survived by her treasured sister Brenda Simons, her twin brother Robert Sfreddo, and sister-in-law Collette Sfreddo. Affectionately calling her "Zia" or Bette, she also leaves behind many dear nieces and nephews who held a special place in her heart.
She was predeceased by her husband, Richard E. Fournier Sr.; brother-in-law, Thomas Simons; sister-in-law Jeannette Campbell and her husband, Bob; as well as niece, Gail Campbell.
