Elizabeth was known as Liz and her friends called her Betty. She loved life to the fullest and was always in good spirits. Liz loved people; socializing was her specialty. She loved traveling amongst other things such as casinos, bowling, surf fishing, cruises, dancing, music, singing – even if she didn’t know the words, she would make up her own. She always had her suitcase packed and her red lipstick on just in case there was a last-minute excursion she needed to jump in on. Liz loved watching her grandsons play baseball, from T-ball all the way through travel ball, high school, and their college years. She loved her family unconditionally; she was an awesome Mom, and she will be missed. She packed a lot of life in those 86 years. Mom, “You did it your way,” may Heaven hold a special place for you.
