Elizabeth was a proud graduate of Texas Women’s University and loved her time as a Physical Therapist. She loved traveling, gardening, crafting, attending the theatre, and spending time with her grandchildren. She enjoyed volunteering and helping people in every capacity from working with orphanages to PTA’s to local clubs and organizations. Her last effort was to be on behalf of AARP lobbying in the state legislature.
She is lovingly remembered by her son, Charles Aiken and his wife Heather, of Durham and her beloved grandsons, Chase and William Aiken. She will also be deeply missed by her dear friend John Holland and her two sisters Ann Clement and husband Jarvis, of Elgin, TX and Sue Cicherski and husband Bill, of Irving, TX.
