From Mrs. McGinty to Liz and all the years between. In Grammar School you were encouraging when I felt terrible about my lopsided Halloween pumpkin painting on the storefront of McDonalds, you said "of course its perfect, it's real, when is the last time you saw a perfectly round pumpkin". When I was a young adult, you shared what it looked like to be incredibly polished and still be unsure, "I am more afraid of them knowing what I don't know then actually not knowing". You made me fall in love with the knotted pearl necklace that hangs to the knees. You gave me the experience of an elegant dinner party with hors d'Oeuvre, Waterford crystal and cool jazz. Most importantly, you gave me my best friend. I admired your strength and loved your vulnerability. Liz you live on in all those who had the honor, privilege and pleasure of knowing you. I love you, I miss you, I will never forget you.
