This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Elizabeth Fitzgerald 82 years old , born on October 10, 1935 and passed away on September 10, 2018. We will remember her forever.
Elizabeth was in my life for my entire childhood. She loved me and I loved her. I was her baby girl. I have vivid memories of being sad or tired, being wrapped up in Elizabeth’s arms, and being rocked back and forth. Certain smells remind me of her. The way she would making a clicking with her tongue is still something I do as an adult and think of her. I could tell countless stories about how she loved me, made me laugh, taught me responsibility, and gave me grace to be myself. In a lot of ways, Elizabeth was my second mom. She was maternal and loving. Then I think about how much love she gave me, I know the love she had for her children and grandchildren was 100 times that. That love for her family was overpowering.She told us stories about her family and she exuded love and warmth when taking about you. She was a mother to so many people and affected so many people’s lives. She was my protector, my guardian, and I loved her. I feel so blessed and grateful that she was a part of my life. I am so sorry to hear this news but know she is watching over us, making sure we behave ourselves, making sure we are true to ourselves, and giving some words of wisdom along the way.
