Very sorry to hear of Liz's passing and sincere sympathy to Liz's family.

I am very saddened to hear of Liz's passing. Liz with her education insight, sense of humour, dignity, rigour and compassion and her unique capacity to listen and to be listened to, will remain as a continuing presence in our hearts and in the wider community of the CDU and the CDETB.

I met Liz in Clanwilliam Institute, I was so sorry to hear of her passing. She was a lovely, kind, gentle lady with a good sense of humour and insightful view of the world. She spoke often of her family, who were obviously very precious to her. I am very grateful to have known Liz even though the time was brief.

I am so saddened to hear of Liz’s passing. It was a pleasure to have known her. I always looked forward to our sessions, she was a great conversationalist, always caring and thoughtful. She will be truly missed. My heart goes out to her husband and daughters.

So sad to hear of the passing of Liz, my condolences to all her family in this sad time.

I am very sad to hear this news. Liz was fine person and a great colleague, always interested, thoughtful and committed. Her proposals were invariably based on sound principles and careful research. She was deeply committed to her work and to those she worked with in the prison service, the Youthreach programme and adult education. But she also saw the lighter side, the energy and crackling rhythms of life in the communities where her work was set. My sincere condolences to her family.

I was so sorry to hear about the untimely death of Liz who I knew through Clanwilliam PPD. It was a privilege to have known Liz and her wonderful good humour, charm and wisdom. My sincere condolences to her family

I was so shocked to hear of Elizabeth's illness, and truly saddened by news of her passing. I hadn't seen her in recent years, but I have so many happy memories of chats at family gatherings or when I'd bump into her in the Phoenix Park. My deepest sympathies to her family - I will remember her soft, kind voice and that wonderful smile.

She was a passionate and principled about education, particularly for those who are seldom listened to in society. It was a privilege to be her colleague. She will be sadly missed.

Ciaran, Aisling, and Anna, I am so sorry you have lost your beautiful, courageous, and loving Liz. She fought a hard battle to stay with her beloved family and tribe. She was a special friend and colleague, I was blessed and privileged to work with her in both her group analytic and adult education worlds. Liz embodied equality, social justice, sustainability, and transformative learning. She was a gentle and persistent warrior committed to her colleagues and learners and believed passionately in the power of the group. I will miss her curiosity, wonder, commitment, sense of humour, elegance and kindness, Liz left the world a better place then she found it. Go gently Liz, codladh sámh.

Beautiful words spoken yesterday at Liz's Celebration of Life. Such love, appreciation and fondness; she will certainly been missed by family, friends and colleagues. Rest in Peace.

My deepest sympathies to Liz family. I was honoured to work with her in the past. She was an inspiring person to work with and kind and generous to all around her. RIP Liz.

A deeply felt death - yet I sense Liz's face and demeanour is etched in all our mind / hearts - for her qualities of listening, inquiry and equanimity were rare. She was striking in her intellect and commitment to the 'vital' nature of Education, Community Culture and role of Creativity. And the core values she drew on - in both a visionary way and in confronting resistances - were true to raising consciousness / confidences and stimulating the natural intrinsic skills of so many people and local areas, engaged in redressing inequalities still stubbornly embedded in Irish society. Her life was demonstrably one of dignified public service and her private self - authentic, insightful and humorous - deserves a profound epitaph. May her husband, children, friends and wider tribe find deep lasting solace in her enduring being and example. Spiorid annamh ag ardú.

My sincere condolences to Ciaran, Aisling, Anna and Liz's extended family.
I had the privilege of working with Liz for many years. She was a good friend and a supportive colleague. We had a shared interest in literature and nature and I always enjoyed our conversations.
"Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower ;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day,
Nothing gold can stay."
(Robert Frost)
Rest in peace Liz.
