Today at the end of Liz's beautiful funeral service, Don asked the priest to read his thank-you to all the friends and family who stepped up to help him. His parting words were to Liz his "brown eyed girl". So here's a link to that song. When you listen to it you can think of her contagious smile. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfmkgQRmmeE

I met Liz in second grade at St. Anthony School in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin; and have always thought of her as one of the kindest human beings I have known. When I heard of Liz's passing, along with the tears came an immediate flood of memories. Some people leave a lasting impression, and Liz was on of those people for me. Jeff and I wish the entire family peace and comfort during this sad time. Liz's light will always be there in the memories we share. Love, Laurie Bernier Rhody & Jeff Rhody
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

I was very sad to hear of Liz’s passing at mass on Sunday. She was a wonderful lady and I always enjoyed doing her hair. Heaven has truly gained another angel with her passing! May your family find comfort in the wonderful memories and knowing she is at home with our Lord. With love from the Marr Family PS Unfortunately I will not be able to make the funeral as I will be out of town . I am sure you will give her a great send off.
