Surrounded by family at her home, Elizabeth passed away peacefully November 20, 2010.
She was born in Los Angeles on April 3, 1930, and attended Morlborough School and UCLA, where she was a Theta. She taught school in Los Angeles, Florida, and Texas.
With the start of a family her time was devoted to her children; and her volunteer activities included the Junior League and the Docent program at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. She loved the outdoors and spent time with the children skiing, backpacking, and camping. Her second career became fundraising for the Junior Arts Center, Marlborough School, and The Music Center.
Her love of art, music, and history never ceased, and her favorite travels would always include an in-depth study of whatever country she was going to visit. Gardening and reading were an important part of her life, and she enjoyed raising ribbon-worthy orchids outdoors.
Her late husband Bill and their children were her main concerns, and she followed their lives closely -- from time to time making a few pertinent suggestions. She was beloved for her dry wit and candid observations, her caring for others, her wonderful cooking and entertaining, her tireless volunteering, and for her uncomplaining struggle with ovarian cancer for fourteen years.
She leaves her daughters Diana Eastman and Cynthia Eastman Simon, son Matthew Eastman, sister Marion Anderson, and stepdaughter Dr. Kerry Davidson.
Funeral Services will be held on January 6, 2011 at 11:00 a.m. in All Saints' Episcopal Church, Beverly Hills, CA.
