Education for people born with Down's Syndrome was not a consistent standard in the 1960's. Therefore, her father drove her and another student to a different town for her earliest elementary education in Missouri. She continued her education in Nebraska and Texas when her family moved.
Elizabeth lived in group homes in Hastings, Nebraska and Cypress, Texas, during her adult years. She worked at various Special Opportunity Centers during this time.
Elizabeth was preceded in death by her father and mother. She is survived by her sisters and brother and their spouses: Deborah Merkord and husband Lanny, Sarah Dirks and husband Greg, Nathan Kretzmann and wife Terri, Rebecca Hobratschk and husband A.C., Rachel Rocks and husband Jack, and Anna Morrison and husband Billy. She is also survived by nephews and nieces: Jordan, Austin, Ethan, Adam, Amanda, Andrew, Paul, Carter, Davis, Lydia, Asa, Nathaniel, Eliza, Lucas, Joseph, Daniel, Mikea, Adrian, Rebekah, Katherine, and great-niece Emory.
Elizabeth knew how much Jesus loved her and all people.
Viewing will be at Grimes Funeral Chapels in Kerrville, Texas, on Saturday, August 5, 2023 at 9:00am. Graveside services will follow at 11:00am at Garden of Memories Cemetery in Kerrville where her body will await the Resurrection.
