Elisabeth was born on January 22, 1934, to Rudolf and Alma Reschke in Chlebiotki, Germany. She immigrated to the United States with her family in the early 1960s and married Joseph Conflitti from Detroit, Michigan, in 1965. The Conflitti family moved from Michigan to Fredericksburg, Texas, in 1981.

Elisabeth is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Christina and Mark Robertson; her son and daughter-in-law, Joe and Tammy Conflitti; five grandchildren, Allison Conflitti, Madeline (Connor) DeStefano, Julia Conflitti, Joey Conflitti, and Wyatt Robertson; brother Horst (Gisela) Reschke, and sister-in-law Anneliese Reschke, along with a niece and nephews from the Conflitti and Reschke families.
