Elizabeth was a strong and loving lady.  She did not know a stranger, she had a loving spirit, and had an effortless way of putting a smile on your face.

She was employed with Maries County R2 in Belle, Mo. With over 19 years of teaching, she had a legacy of students that respected and admired her passionate approach to enriching and challenging students to reach their full potential. She remained in contact with her students through the years.
