Elizabeth THWEATT Obituary

Elizabeth, 86, passed away suddenly at home into the arms of our Lord. She was a retired law librarian from Gonzaga Law School; a career Elizabeth enjoyed for over forty years.

In her younger years, Elizabeth enjoyed traveling. One trip brought her to Guatemala. After that, she sponsored families through the Guatemalan Mission Adopt a Family Program.

Elizabeth lived her Catholic faith to the fullest every day. She prayed the rosary and Divine Mercy chaplet continually. Elizabeth volunteered many hours at Our Lady of Lourdes Cathedral, St. Aloysius Catholic Church, and Bishop White Seminary.

She will be missed by her niece, Mary Cay (Tom); nephew, Michael; ten great-nieces and nephews; and special friends, Rick and Robin.

Elizabeth's rosary vigil will be at Our Lady of Lourdes Cathedral, July 2, 2025, at 5:00 PM. The Mass of Christian Burial will be July 3, 2025, at 10:00 AM, at Our Lady of Lourdes Cathedral, Spokane, WA. A reception will follow at the church. Her committal service will be at 1:00 PM at Holy Cross Cemetery on the same day. Online memorial page can be found at www.holycrossofspokane.org.

I worked with Elizabeth for 6 years at Gonzaga Law. She always had a smile in her face and was incredibly kind. She made a difference in the lives of so many students.
