I had the pleasure of working along side Liz at Trafalgar School. She was fabulous, always supportive, caring and kind. A truly lovely Lady to have known and to have laughed with . I really will always value the time I spent with her. You will be so missed by so many. Xxx
Mandy Stapleton
Lizzy was an incredible colleague. She was devoted to the children at Trafalgar and her generosity and dedication was inspirational. She was so kind and thoughtful that before school trips or music festivals she’d rush out and buy children bits of uniform so they wouldn’t feel different or left out. Lizzie had a wonderful sense of humour and brought out the best in the children she worked with. I will miss her wonderful inclusive spirit and I know she lives in in the hearts of the hundreds of children whose lives she changed for ever.
Rita Edwards
Liz taught us how to smile through adversity. So I will be smiling with you in her memory on August 17 though I can’t be there in person. A very special friend, greatly missed.

Dear Liz, You set an example in how to live life to the full and with such grace and humour, despite the challenges that it put in your path. You showed such care and compassion for others and were genuinely interested in them. It was a privilege to have known you and to experience what your loyal friendship meant.

Dear Liz. We will never forget your amazing smile and how kind and caring you were. Your courage and resilience over the last few years have been an example for us all. You will always be in our memories.
Lots of love Tom, Mae, Hayley and Emily.

Liz was a big part of my childhood. My memories of her are warm and friendly and full of laughter. She was a very good friend in good times but especially when they got bad. She was supportive, nurturing and will be missed massively by both family and friends. Sending much love xxx

Liz was a lovely person and a very special neighbor and friend. She was full of light and made us feel so very welcomed when we first moved to England. Our hearts go out to Colin, her amazing daughters and their families. Love, Ann, Barry & Izzy Francke
Ann Francke
I had the pleasure and privilege of knowing Liz firstly as a supportive parent at Trafalgar Infant School and then working alongside her as a member of staff at the school.
Liz was dedicated to nurturing the children in her care, celebrating with them their strengths and achievements whilst also supporting them through their learning challenges.
Liz showed the same care and support to her staff colleagues and we will always remember her iced coffee making in a hot and stuffy summer term staffroom, the staff cupboard always kept well stocked with health and well-being essentials and of course, her home cooking and baking treats!
On a personal note, I will always remember the laughter and tears we shared, her practical help to me in a myriad of tasks from our weekly flower arrangements out of donated flowers to her creativity in organising our community Centenary celebrations in 2005 and last but not least, introducing me to ‘Eau Dynamisante’ – forever a favourite!
Lynne Thompson
We have such happy memories of time spent drinking tea with Liz, chatting after school. She was so brave, kind and extremely loving. My parents were lucky to have such caring neighbours. We all remember her with great affection and love. She will be greatly missed. Much love from us all, and Stuart and Margaret. Xxx
