Age 68 of Halifax. We the family of Elizabeth “Liz” Gray are very sad to announce the peaceful passing of a dear beautiful person on September 5^th ,2019, after a year of battling cancer. Liz was born in Halifax on August 20^th, 1951. Liz worked with Northwood Care for 28 years until her retirement four years ago. She met and became friends with so many people, Liz always had a smile on her face and always said hello to everyone she met. She was a person who you would love to get to know. Liz travelled to many different places in Western Canada, as well as to her favorite place Las Vegas, in which she got to enjoy four different times with her good friend, Ruthie and was very excited to attend the Celine Dion concert. Liz’s best accomplishments in her 68 years of life was her pride and joy, her only child, her son Kirk. He was the light of her life and she made it a point of telling everyone she encountered.
