She was a God Mother to Amanda Sylvia, Philip Valenzuela and Samantha Quijada. A “cool’ aunt and great-aunt to countless nieces and nephews. A loving niece and cousin who enjoyed keeping in touch with the family. She was always present for anyone who called on her, family, friends and those she barely knew. She gave a helping hand, a hug and words of encouragement to anyone who needed it. Everyone was her “Babe”.

She enjoyed playing online slots and puzzles for fun, going to the beach, watching scary movies and reality tv. She was a very good cook. She listened to R & B music, loved dancing, sewing and above all else spending time with her boys and watching them play their sports.
Liza will be missed by all who were blessed to have her in their lives, and we can only hope to live our lives as she did humbly, with faith, love and respect to all.
