Elizabeth worked for the phone company until they started their family. Kevin Roy, Lisa Ann, David Lee and Mary Jo were the life and love of Elizabeth and Roy. The family moved to Providence and built a new home which Elizabeth lived in until her passing. She kept busy raising a growing family and serving faithfully in the LDS Church. She loved attending meetings, serving in numerous callings including Relief Society President, Primary teacher, Sunday school teacher and many other responsibilities which she always accepted. She worked for many years in the Logan Temple while keeping her other callings at the same time.
Elizabeth loved her pioneer ancestry and was a proud member of Daughters of the Utah Pioneers. She helped in many ways and served in her camp well. She was proud of the fact her ancestors were some of the first to settle Providence and help shape Cache Valley. Elizabeth was a gifted and talented singer. She sang in many Ward Choirs and joined the Northern Utah Coral Society which later became the American Festival Choir under the direction of Craig Jessop. She traveled to several countries in South America, Eastern Europe including Russia, England, France Germany, Austria, New Zealand and Australia.
