I REMEMBER LIZ WHEN HER FAMILY MOVED HERE FROM MICHIGAN MANY, MANY YEARS AGO. GROWING UP WITH ALL HER BROTHERS, BEING THE ONLY GIRL IN A FAMILY FULL OF BOYS. SHE WAS A VERY SPECIAL PERSON, FULL OF LIFE AND LOVE. I ALWAYS HAVE VERY FOND MEMORIES OF LIZ AND ALL OF THE BRADLEYS. YOU ARE IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS DURING THIS DIFFUCULT TIME. IT IS SO HARD TO LOSE A LOVE ONE.

Liz, Michelle and Micha were neighbors of mine many years ago. I'll never forget Liz's infectious smile and laughter. We had a closely knit neighborhood, and I remember those days fondly. Liz and her girls were a large part of that. Although I haven't spoken to her in a long time, reading the tributes here to her make it obvious what a terrific, Christ-loving person she was. What a tremendous legacy she leaves behind! To Michelle, Micha, and the rest

I had the pleasure of working with Liz almost 12 yrs. Upon entering the Business Office you'd always see her gracious smile and hear her unique giggle. After leaving I would often ask about her as she was one fine soul one would never forget. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family, friends and co-workers. God Bless..

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. I had the pleasure of working with Liz the past 5 years and everytime I entered the Children's Hospital Business Office, Liz always greeted me with a smile on her face and a story to tell. She was a wonderful person and I count myself fortunate in having the opportunity to know her. I will miss her and may she and her husband rest in peace.

My dear Chel, I never met your mom, never shared anything or spoke to her. I know one thing though, she MUST have been a wonderful woman to have raised such a caring, loving, supportive and kind daughter. Honor her memory by being the best Chel you can be. I love you, I'm here for you, and I am so very, very sorry for your great loss.

Although I never met Liz in person, she was my main contact at the hospital. I had the pleasure of talking to her on the phone a few times, as well as correspond via e-mail over work-related issues. She always sounded upbeat and had such a sweet, kind voice. Seeing her picture here for the first time, I can see why everyone loved her; you can just tell she was a happy person. My heart goes out to the family she left behind. She will be missed!
