Elizabeth was married to the late Jack Calderwood, and together they built a home grounded in steady devotion and care. A homemaker in the truest sense of the word, she gave her days to the quiet, essential work of nurturing family life—offering kindness in abundance, patience in every season, and a thoughtfulness that made others feel seen and supported. In the lives she touched, Elizabeth will be remembered as deeply beloved and warmly generous, a presence that brought comfort and calm.
She is survived by her children: Christine Leavenworth and her husband Stephen, Laura Eckert and her husband Christopher, and Scott Calderwood and his wife Jen. She was a cherished grandmother to Sean, Meaghan and her fiancé James, Brendan, Julia, Kaitlyn, Riley, Keegan, and Declan. She is also remembered as a sister and aunt.
Visitation will be held at Claude R. Boyd/Caratozzolo Funeral Home, 1785 Deer Park Ave, Deer Park, NY 11729, on September 11, 2026, from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm, and again from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
