Elizabeth was a vibrant woman with a warm laugh. She had a strong will and quick wit that she brandished proudly against anyone who sought to cause mischief with her loved ones. Blessed with the finest culinary skills, all those lucky enough to have sampled her cooking would commence to gain 10 pounds. Her greatest accomplishments however was her family. A family who is blessed to have had a woman such as she to call Mom, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother.

Elizabeth leaves behind four children, Stephanie and Roger Shepherd, Stephen and Carol Wukits, Theresa and Fred Lovern, Beryl and Crystal Whitfield; five grandchildren, Eric and Sherry Shepherd, Matthew and Shawna Shepherd, Elizabeth and Marion Sanderson, Madeline Lovern, Hunter Whitfield; thirteen great-grandchildren.
