I was quite shocked when Gary informed me of Elizabeth’s sudden passing. Our deepest condolences to Alan, Cathy, Gary, Mark and Cheryl, our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time. I will always remember Elizabeth as an amazing teacher and mother whom I respect and appreciate for her dedication to her students and most importantly to her children and Allan. And yes, there were an occasion or two where she gave me motherly advice.
I am thankful to have had the opportunity to visit Elizabeth and Allan when in town and talk with Elizabeth over the phone in recent years. One such visit was in 2014 when I stopped by unannounced with my family. We were warmly welcomed in, offered food and drinks and had a very pleasant visit catching up. What stood out to me from this visit, was the impression it made on our teenage boys. They thought is was so cool that we could visit teachers from my elementary and middle schools, and were most impressed by how welcoming, warm and friendly Elizabeth and Allan were.

A wonderful person, gone too soon.

Alan and Jean, I am so sorry for the loss of your wife, sister. She was a great lady. I remember the times Carolyn and I visited you in Bayle City. Elizabeth invited me to your Grandma's house for a meal from time to time when we both were at EIU. I especially remember her beautiful handwriting and her incredible intelligence. My condolences to both of you.

Alan, we have sent a brief message through the postal service to you, but do not have contact information for Cheryl, Mark, Cathy, or Gary. We have not had the opportunity to know your children Alinda and Andrea. Liz has always been a central piece in the Baker family. We cannot imagine the anguish you are experiencing, especially in light of the unexpected and sudden nature of her death. Liz loved you dearly and we are most grateful for the many years of happiness the two of you have shared. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, even if we cannot be together at this moment.
