Elizabeth loved animals of all kinds and often found abandoned strays which she would bring home. Although her life was short, Lizzie touched a lot of lives, for once she knew your name you were instantly her friend. Elizabeth was known by her friends as a kind, giving person, who would share what she had with them whether it was food, clothing, or shelter. Elizabeth will be dearly missed by her family and friends.

Lizzie was a beautiful person, perfect flower girl and had a heart full of love. Our hearts are breaking. Sending prayers and love.
So sorry for your loss. We remember Lizzie living next door to my mom/mother-in-law in okarche. She always wanted to visit when we were outside. Cute as a bug! What a beautiful young woman she has grown to be. We miss those days but cherish the memories even more now. May God comfort your family during this difficult time. Love and prayers, Steve and Debbie Crossley
