Donnie, Tina Marie and DJ:

I am so sorry for your loss. I have been trying to find your mom for a couple of years, and just tonight, 03/09/2012, I found this sad news.

My heart is heavy. Some of my best memories as a child were of your mom and your grandmom. Your grandmom taught me all the important things about life, and I have loved her since I was 10. She was more of a mother to me than my own. Your mom was my first "grownup" friend. She was so beautiful; I was jealous of her gorgeous blond hair and beautiful skin. Although she was a few years older than me, we kind of grew up together. I remember before we'd even met, I used to listen to the kids getting off the school bus singing "Liz and Norman, sittin' in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g." I remember hoping one day I would look like her and have a boyfriend like that. She had on a beautiful light blue dress (mini, of course) and she had the latest haircut, "the swinger." I was too young to know right then, but she was pregnant with you, Donnie. I spent a lot of time with her when your dad first joined the Navy and she stayed in AL. Your grandfather, Mac, took me to get my driver's license on my 16th birthday. Your mom and I learned how to drive in a cow pasture on Rucker Blvd. going towards Enterprise; it was an old white stick shift Ford. Tina Marie, looking at your for the first time made me want to have lots of babies. I loved you so much. We'd put you two in the back seat of that Ford and drive for hours, getting stuck at least 3x a day! Your mom taught me how to get my first boyfriend; I remember it like it was yesterday. I always looked up to your mom and I wanted to be like her and your grandmom. I never made it. Life got in the way. I could write about them forever. Your grandmom taught me how to cook, and she's the first person I told when I got pregnant with Marcus. She taught me how to be a wife. Your mom taught me how to make sweet tea. She loved life and wore the most beautiful smile. I envied her for that. DJ, I didn't meet you until ya'll bought my house on Angol Place. Your mom wasn't a young teenager anymore, but she looked at you with the same wonder she did Donnie and Tina Marie. You children come from GOOD, hearty stock--good people--you are very lucky. I lost both of my parents in the past few years, and believe me, you will never forget this loss, but hopefully you will take joy in remembering all the things your mom taught you, and pass that along to your own children and loved ones. I have been a better mom and a better person because of the influence your grandmom and mom had on me...and my six children have had the benefits of their wisdom and love of life.
Get in touch with me if you ever have time; I'd like to know about your grownup [email protected].

Mema-
She was the most wonderful, caring, selfless woman I had ever met and lucky enough to call her "Me Mom". Later to give her the GREAT name of Mema we all cherish makes me speechless. If each of us can take only a 1/4 of what she gave the world we can all make an impression. I believe that our Lord used her exactly the way she was needed eventhough at times she was uncertain, but always determained. Thank you Charlie for loving her the way she desired and allowing her to be who she was---Mema.

This has been a tremendous loss to our family, Liz has always been there for my family through some of the hardest times and has given the greatest advice. She was like a mother to me and like a grandparent to my children. Her kind soul will be greatly missed, but know her spirit will live on through all of us. She was one of the strongest people i have ever had the pleasure to meet.

She will always be watching over you and her children and grand children.

I am so sorry. Words can not express what a loss like this feels like of such a beautiful person.Beautiful inside and out. She had nothing but kind words for everyone. She will have no more pain and God has given her back her eternal beauty. We should all be very jealous for she is with God almighty by her side. We love you Liz. Greg & Charlene.

for anyone who has lost a kind and giving soul.It is with deep sadness to have to express feeling of someone I've known and now lost. Cancer has claimed another beautiful soul, but her spirit will live on amoung family and friends, which I've had the priviledge of knowing. Liz you will be missed, but never forgotten.
