Liz, as she liked to be called, had over 500 hours at the Gibbs Care Center as a volunteer. She received several awards for helping women contemplating abortion. She still received updates and pictures of babies that were saved. Liz spent several hours on the internet with the DOE network to help identify murdered victims. She had a special spot in her heart for these women who were mostly prostitutes and drug users. As Liz said, God sees the heart and soul of these women. She sponsored five beautiful little girls through Children's International. She used her money from the checks she received to buy bunk beds for one of them, as they did not have a bed to sleep on. Liz suffered greatly from the very rare disease F.M.F. and she was racked with pain more and more. She wanted to go home to be with the Lord. He called her to come home at 2.34 a.m. Sunday February 27, 2005. She will be missed greatly, but she is free from pain at last, give God the glory. At her funeral service, her church gave a wonderful inspiring celebration service for Liz. Arrangements made by Rose Lawn Funeral Home and burial in Rose Lawn Cemetery, both in Gulf Breeze, Florida.
