"Liz will be missed by many. I am blessed to have known her. I worked at the Phoenix post office and Liz and I worked on many projects together. She had so many wonderful attributes - intellegent, witty, fun. I admired her independence and spirit. Christ teaches us to bear one anothers burdens and mourn with those that mourn. There are many who share your sorrow at her leaving us so soon but we can celebrate her life to honor what a wonderful woman she was. God bless you and your family and may the special memories of Mary Elizabeth (Liz) bring you comfort in the days to come. Linda Wylie, Tempe AZ"

"I got to know Liz while employed at the Postal Service...funny I always called her Liz not knowing her real name was Mary. She was a dedicated Postal Supervisor, always trying to assist other employees and getting you an answer even if it took a couple of hours to do so. I will always remember her contagious smile..."
