My love and prayers go out to the family. Lizzie was a mess, lol, I loved her almost as family, I have dreaded this day as I know Tonya and Tracy have. But I praise the Lord that old hip doesn’t hurt anymore for today she has a new body in Christ Jesus. As your heart hurts at her passing from this life just see her dancing in the halls without pain. I was “her girl, and she was my Lizzie”. I will remember her always with love.

I had the pleasure of being Lizzie Mae’s nurse at the Villa. I enjoyed putting puzzles together, dancing and playing Bingo with her. She loved her family so much and would light up when they came to visit her every week. I remember her always talking about her Daddy giving her money for candy when she was a little girl. That was her favorite story to tell. She loved her desserts especially ice cream every night. She was a special lady and she will be missed. She will always have a special place in my heart. Until we meet again Lizzie Mae.

I met Lizzie 6 months ago when I began working at the The Villa and had the privilege of helping care for her. I will miss her and her daughters who came daily to be with her, check on her, and made sure she had what she needed, even when they were exhausted. Lizzie will be missed by all of us. Thank you for allowing us to care for Lizzie.

Tracey and family, my prayers are with you during this time. Love Kelli
