May 1977 obit in Words in Season indicates that Elizabeth was saved in 1930 in the old West Chicago AssemblyBlvd. assembly, Detroit, and that she "went on well to the end... of recent years hindered by infirmity". Her husband Robert had testified, "He gave us to each other when we were in our sins, saved us by His grace, and gave us five daughters and one son, and saved them all. Titus 2:13" Truth & Tidings echoed similar, with some unique contributions, "Our dear sister went home to be with Christ two weeks after surgery... her end was perfect peace.... went on steadfastly to the end."
