Elizabeth Craig Obituary

CRAIG, Elizabeth "Liz" 68, of Tampa, passed away at her home on September 6, 2020. Liz was brilliant, kind, loving and a follower of truth and good. Every single person she met or touched was a better person for having her in their lives. Liz was one of the first female "leaders" in the construction industry. Liz went from Henry Grady Elementary to Coleman Jr. High and onto H.B. Plant High School where she received a scholarship to a drafting college and away she went. She was a stickler for honesty, for following the rules and for always doing the correct thing. She managed many buildings in Tampa, most notably, the Bank of America Plaza in downtown as well as a few buildings in Jacksonville. Liz was predeceased by her mother, Bobbi Craig; and her brother, John Craig. Liz leaves behind her adored and beloved daughter, Elizabeth Ann Dunn along with her love, Kay; her brother, David Craig and his wife, Melanie; and her oldest, closest friend and cousin, Ellen, and her daughter, Brooke and all of their families, not to mention a host of friends and co-workers. Liz will be scattered around places she loved. She would want you to sing, dance and raise a glass in her honor. To honor her memory, please join us for a celebration of life at Malio's on Friday, September 18 at 6:30 pm. www.blountcurrymacdill.com

I always was fond of Elizabeth, we didn't get to grow up with each other due to our parent's jobs. But have nice memories of our family get-togethers. It's odd because for the past few weeks again as in the past I've been trying to locate her & her daughter. I am so sorry to hear of her passing, I know she will be missed by her daughter and friends. Please contact.

I worked with Liz bank in days of RMC. She was always smiling and never said anything bad about anyone. She was truthful and trustworthy. I remember one of her costumes where she dressed up as a "circular file" with papers pinned all over her outfit. I thought that was very creative and funny. She had the biggest heart. I have not worked with her for sometime but I will always remember her being one of the bright lights at RMC
