I worked with Liz at 75 State Street with Stephanie Crawford on the second floor when we were all nurses aids. Liz always had a smile and a willingness to help you out no matter what. I will definitely miss her and her smiling face.

I am so deeply sorry to hear about Liz. She was one of the greatest,most loving woman I have ever met .Her friends were always important to her and her family was her most precious gift to her. I remember how special her mom was to her and she’d take buses and did alot of walking to to get to see her on her weekends off. I worked with Liz for almost 15 years and when she went to Evergreen I’m happy I was there to take care of her and to try and help lessen her fear of being in a strange place. She used to let me read some of her poetry knowing I love poetry . I feel honored to have been her friend and one of her nurses ! May she rest in peace in the arms of The Lord and watch over all she knew and loved. My deepest sympathies to out to her family,praying for all. Karen Hutchins LPN
