It was with great sadness that I read about the passing of Elizabeth. After her retiirement she would come to College Park Elementary to volunteer in my first grade classroom. She did this for many years and helped many many children advance with their reading skills as well as develop a love of reading. Sterling would drop her off at the school in the morning and when the children knew she was coming they would all be anxious to read to her. Elizabeth listened to the stories and carried on a conversation with each child after the book was read. Many of these children did not have an adult at home who was available to listen to them! On holidays Elizabeth always arrived with a little treat for the readers. As her eyesight declined Elizabeth would comment that she couldn't see the words in the books but she had heard the stories so many times that she had memorized them! What a wonderful lady! Her love and compassion will be missed!
