Please Leave Your Condolences
When your condolences are submitted they will not display until approved by the Hohner staff for appropriateness out of respect for their memory. They should appear within 24 hours or less. Thank you for your understanding.
We were very shocked to hear that you passed so soon, and I think it’s because God wanted to spare you from more pain. I missed the chance to say goodbye and was equally troubled that we were unable to come to the celebration of your life with all of your loved ones. We will miss your grit and determination and always admire your dedication to family and work. Despite the hard times you could always leave us with a smile and a laugh. I will miss talking cars, motorcycles, chickens, family and most of all Jesus! We will see you in heaven, so for now it’s “see you later.” Duane and the rest of the family, you can be proud of the example Liz was to us all, and we will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. All our love and deepest condolences, Andrew and Nannette Heib.
Liz…my dear friend. Life will not be the same without you here. You were so fun to spend time with even if it was just sitting around watching reruns of Yellowstone. Even though our friendship was on the newer side, we grew very close very fast…you mean the world to me and always will. Rest easy my sweet friend…until we meet again! I love you ❤️
