Elizabeth H Haughton

Elizabeth was born in Dublin, Ireland on Aug 21st 1918, daughter of William Joseph Holton and Ellen Lyons Holton; and grew up in the midst of multiple challenges from the great depression, the Irish struggle for independence and the 2nd World War. Through it all she maintained a great sense of humor, an abiding faith in the Catholic Church and a devotion to Our Lady and St Martin. Elizabeth and her husband Bill moved to the United States in 1990 to be near their daughters, Antoinette and Brenda and son Fergie. She was preceded in death by her husband, Bill Haughton in 2000. Elizabeth enjoyed bingo, lunch and shopping with her frequent companions, Cheryl Blalock and Liz Fowler; and was an inspiration to all who knew and loved her.

Elizabeth is survived by her sister Angela in Dublin Ireland ; daughters Antoinette Brahm and Brenda Haythorne; and son Fergie Haughton and their spouses, all of Rome Ga.
