Liz was a 1982 graduate of Benjamin Logan High School. She worked for the Logan County Common Pleas Court for eleven years and six years as a Victim Witness Advocate for the Logan County Prosecutor’s Office where she recently became certified.

Liz was humble, compassionate, hardworking, loyal, selfless, and generous. She was an “authentic” human being. Liz always greeted you with a smile and was kind to everyone she met. She was a dedicated daughter, mother, partner, and friend. Liz was devoted to her work with victims of domestic violence and worked tirelessly in her effort to support victims and witnesses. She was committed to doing all that was necessary to ensure the protection and safety of those entrusted in her care. She was well respected in her community and profession. Liz worked hard to accomplish her role as an advocate and was proud of her work.

Liz was passionate about horses, barrel racing, rodeos, and bull rides. She embodied the definition of “a real cowgirl.” Liz loved her home, her “woods”, good music, and “barn time.”

A celebration of life gathering with family and friends will take place Saturday, December 9, 2017 from 9 A.M. to 12 noon at the Rushsylvania Church of Christ Grand Foyer in Rushsylvania. Burial will take place at a later date.
