Elizabeth is also survived by nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews, many of whom enjoyed family gatherings at her home over the years.

Born in a Baltimore row home on Port Street and raised from humble beginnings, Elizabeth married young and welcomed all four of her children by the age of 24. Her children often joked that it was always "cool" to tell people she was their mother because she was so young and beautiful.

She worked her way up from a clerk at Atlantic Federal Savings and Loan to branch manager and eventually vice president. A pioneer in her field, she was among the first banking professionals to visit elementary schools and teach children the importance of saving. She collected students' passbooks, took them to the bank for updates, and returned them so they could see firsthand how their savings grew through the power of compound interest.

A dedicated and hardworking professional, she was deeply loved by her customers for her patience, kindness, and willingness to help others, often extending support far beyond her professional responsibilities.

Elizabeth found joy in life's simple pleasures: diamonds, crab cake sandwiches, Mounds and Snickers bars, the Baltimore Orioles, trips to Hawaii, Andrea Bocelli's and Celine Dion's The Prayer, and the television series 24. Her colorful expressions were equally memorable. She believed, "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all." Yet an eye roll or her signature response, "That's different," often spoke volumes.

Both practical and creative, she became an accomplished seamstress and a wonderful baker whose creations delighted many of us over the years. She often said that nothing made her happier than being surrounded by her children and their families.

Though she was never wealthy in material possessions, her children never felt deprived because she always put their needs before her own. In her later years, she enjoyed playing the lottery, hoping that one day, "her ship would come in" so she could spend every penny on the family and friends she loved so dearly.

While she will be remembered fondly for her strength, generosity, and unwavering devotion to family, her enduring motto, "Where there's a will, there's a way," remains etched in the hearts of those she loved. Nothing brought her greater joy than giving to others and hosting family gatherings in her home.

Though we will miss her dearly, we find comfort in knowing that her heavenly reunion must have been a celebration like no other.

Private family service will be held at a later date.
