Our love and thoughts are with the family at this sad time. I am so sorry that I could not be there today as planned to celebrate her life. We have fond memories of Liz and we were blessed to have her work with us over many years. Her vision and passion for her store will not be forgotten along with her warmth, kindness and wonderful sense of humour. With much love and respect from our team at Zambesi, Liz & Neville and family.

So sorry to see Liz has passed away. She was a lovely lady, will always remember our conversations on her visits to the bank when she had the shop, she was just delightful. My thoughts are with you all at this sad time.
