Hallie & Family: My prayers and condolences to you and your Family on the passing of your Mom. We were walking buddies for years at Totoket Woods. I would always see her walking or working in her beautiful garden. She will be truly missed. May she rest in peace.Fran Mulligan

I met Liz 11 years ago when I walked into the Audubon Shop and she was at the counter talking to Jerry about wanting to go on a birding trip to Costa Rica but she needed a roommate. She had no idea who I was, but she asked me if I would be interested in going with her. We did go the following winter and had an amazing time. Liz never had any problem going up to a total stranger and starting a conversation like she knew them her whole life. I envied her for that. She enjoyed her bird watching so much and I'm glad she was able to go on many more trips and enjoy her passion. Hallie - she talked about you all the time. She loved you very much and was so grateful to you for all the help you gave her over the years. You had a special relationship. Liz was a very unique person and I'm going to miss her very much.
