Elizabeth Ellen U'Ren, age 75, of Waterford, Michigan, passed away on December 2, 2025. She was born on December 3, 1949, in Lansing, Michigan.

Elizabeth graduated from Kimball High School in Royal Oak and went on to work as an In-Home Aide, providing care and companionship to housebound patients until her retirement in 2000. Compassionate and selfless, she dedicated much of her life to serving others.

A deeply faithful woman, Elizabeth was an active parishioner and volunteer at her church, always ready to lend a hand where needed. She also volunteered at the Waterford Senior Center, where her generosity, humor, and warm spirit made her beloved by many. She was known for her love of baking and proudly supplied countless baked goods for church events and senior center gatherings. Elizabeth held a strong interest in elderly care rights and was a steadfast advocate for the well-being of others. Her kind and caring nature, paired with her quick sense of humor, allowed her to connect easily with everyone she met.

She is survived by her brother, Nicholas A. U'Ren Jr. (Patricia), her nephews Steven U'Ren and William U'Ren, along with many cherished friends whose lives she touched. She is preceded in death by her loving parents Ellen and Nicholas A. U'Ren Sr.

A Memorial Service for Elizabeth will take place at a later date. Please return to this site for details. She will be laid to rest at White Chapel Cemetery.

Memorial donations in Elizabeth's memory may be made to the Waterford Senior Center (3621 Pontiac Lake Rd, Waterford, MI 48328).
