After moving to several job destinations with her husband Samuel, Elizabeth settled onto the Fife family’s 1830s homestead outside of Beaver. She rejoiced in beautifying her home and property with creating bountiful gardens of vegetables and flowers into the garden spot of Brighton Township. That bounty she grew was generously shared with friends and family throughout the area. Her visiting grandchildren were the beneficiaries of a master class in gardening and nature.
Her resolute strength and spirit will remain close in our hearts always.
Friends will be received on Friday, February 14th from 2-4 p.m. and 6-8 p.m. in the Noll Funeral Home, 333 Third Street, Beaver. Interment will take place on the family plot at Scrub Grass Presbyterian Cemetery of Emlenton, Pennsylvania. Online condolences may be shared at nollfuneral.com.
