We will miss you Liz. We had so many fun times together. Family bbqs, birthdays and christmas in the park where afterwards you would march us down the street singing Land of Hope and Glory. Everyone gave us funny looks but we didn't care we were having the time of our lives! Then when you moved up North and we would regularly catch up for lunches and dinners and you would always have your boiling hot cup of water! Rest in Peace, love always.

We'll miss Liz. She was such a character, one of most tollerant people I ever knew- always accepting people for who they were. I had many memorable times in her company.
