We are so sorry to hear of Liz passing. Jim and family our deepest sympathy. Liz was always bubbly and always put her best foot forward. Will miss meeting up with her for a little chit chat. Keep your memories close and share them often.
Our deepest sympathies go out to Liz family at this time. I had the privilege of working with her as a bus driver. She always had a smile on her face and great times at any function that we attended together.
