Senior pastor George Robertson told mourners that although “Liza didn’t have the resume of a world changer,” the change she made within her community was insurmountable.
“She struggled through school and her college soccer career was cut short. She battled her way to finish college,” he said, per New York Post. “Then she got her master’s degree and married Richie and had her beautiful boys and became a kindergarten teacher.”
He added, “She was a light and also a joy. It is right for us to grieve, but let us grieve with hope. Let’s carry on the legacy of our dear sister.”
