I'm so saddened to learn of Liz's passing. She was always so sweet and pleasant to me. We worked together for many years at Mtn Bell and, after retirement, she worked as a greeter at the Fountain Walmart. I chatted with her almost daily. I missed her when she left and have often wondered about her over the years. To Mark and Karen, you have my sincere sympathy and to all the family, I offer my deepest condolences and prayers for your strength and comfort. I am so sorry for your loss.
