You were a very wonderful person with a loving spirit. I got to know you through the friendship I share with your sweet daughter. You are going to be missed! May God be with your family during this difficult time😔
Beth & I were friends since about the eighth grade. She was what you would call a true friend. I don’t think she ever met a stranger. I have really missed her since she went to rehab, and I will surely miss her more now. Fly high. My friend, & I will see you again. one day.
I worked with Elizabeth at Schlage Lock Co. back in the 70’s. She was the sweetest person that you will ever meet! Sending my condolences to the family! I will keep you in my prayers!!
