Mike - I will never forget, and will forever be grateful for what Elizabeth (and you) did for me at a very hard time in my life. Though Elizabeth barely knew me at the time, she reached out to me with compassion and love. God used her to bless my life as I know she has blessed so many! Praying God's peace that passes all understanding will surround you and your boys.

Mike,
Scott and I are sad to hear about Elizabeth. We admired her so much for the gracious way she has dealt with her difficult journey. As Stuart Scott said, Elizabeth's death does not mean she lost to cancer. She won by the way she lived her life and she has been an inspiration to so many.
