Born January 28, 1932-August 23, 2022
With great sadness we announce the death of Elizabeth Sedlmeir-Scratch. With great gratitude we thank God for giving the world the gift of Liz.
Elizabeth “Liz” was the loving wife of Morley Scratch (deceased Dec. 6, 2020), stepmother of Margo Warren (Allan), Dale Scratch (Nancy), Grand-stepmother of Brent Scratch (Sarah), Lauren Scratch and Alex Warren (Abby), Great-Grand stepmother to Mary Ellen (Alex, Abby) and Rowan (Brent, Sarah).
Liz was the remaining member of her immediate Sedlmeir family, having been predeceased by her parents Louis and Mary, sister Marianne Eaton, brother Tom Sedlmeir (Dolores) and sister, Linda Gehl. She is survived by her sister-in-law Dolores Sedlmeir. She will be missed and held close in heart by her many nieces and nephews whose love and admiration for their aunt continues.
Liz was blessed with numerous friends during her life. We all share in the loss of Liz who was a wonderful gift that touched our lives.
She was a dedicated educator who retired in 1988, finishing her teaching profession at Holy Family School in Windsor. Liz served as the Honorary President of the Retired Women’s Teacher’s Federation, Windsor Es Board from 2004-2005. During her career, she impacted the lives of so many grateful students and staffs in Windsor and across Canada.
She was a parish member of Holy Name of Jesus Church in Es. Her faith was paramount as she lived her life dedicated to God and serving others.
Her love of life was evident through her loving actions toward her family and friends, her generous giving to those in need and in her acceptance of the pleasures and challenges that life presented to her.
Liz’s life is to be celebrated with gratitude at a Mass of Thanksgiving at Holy Name of Jesus Church, 146 Talbot Street South, Es on Saturday September 3rd at 11am. As an expression of sympathy, memorial donations to the Alzheimer Society of Windsor/Es or the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated.
