Our sympathies to John and Chris. Wendy and I were pleased to visit Liz and both of you a while back. I remember when Liz first came to Trinity as a student in Miss Grupe's room. Don't recall which grade for sure. Remember talking Liz to see a movie probably the summer after HS graduation. Guess I kind of crossed a line since we are cousins, but it made a memory.
Our thoughts and prayers for all of you.

I am so sorry to see that Liz has passed. I remember such a bright and cute girl as a Trinity student. I´m sorry I lost track of her, but her obituary shows she had an interesting and full life. (She takes after her mom in looks too). Please know as I learned this sad news, it touched my heart and I send my sincere sympathies to all. God bless & comfort you. Kathy (Nunnenkamp) Pieper
