Elizabeth passed peacefully in her sleep on January 12th at the age of 87. Liz, as she was known, was born October 7, 1938 in Bates, Arkansas to Ted and Lucretia Kerns. She spent 45 years living in the metro Denver community where she was widely known for her deep devotion and showing of English bulldogs.

Dear Mom, there are no tears past the gates of heaven.
