So sorry for your loss. Elizabeth was such a good friend and helper to my brother Roger. She was always so kind to me in her compliments when she watched our church services and enjoyed the music that i was involved in.

So sorry to hear Eliz passed away. I worked at the winery with her for 2 years. Really enjoyed her and when she lived on 247 I use to keep contact with her. She was a very sweet caring lady and will be missed. When she moved from the home on 247 I lost contact with her. She was always so pleasant and caring. RIP Elizabeth
