  A Service-Rich Life:

  Throughout her life, Elizabeth Laurie wore several hats with ease: volunteer, mother, wife, sister, friend, and council member. Her family’s dedication to assisting others instilled in her a strong sense of community pride during her upbringing on Laurie Road. Her years as a Girl Guide and her involvement in numerous community organizations were both sparked by this early experience, which led to a lifetime of volunteer work.

  Pioneering Leadership:

  Elizabeth was a trailblazer in many respects when she was elected to the Paradise Council in 2009. She broke down barriers in her sector and was one of the youngest elected officials, all the while promoting women in politics and equality. Her dedication to promoting inclusive governance was demonstrated by her support of organizations like Equal Voice and the Women’s Caucus of Municipalities NL.

  Commitment to Paradise:

  Elizabeth provided steadfast service to the Town of Paradise for fifteen years. She was instrumental in directing the town’s expansion and development, serving as deputy mayor and on committees. Her boldness in making difficult choices and her leadership made a big difference in the town’s development.

Her openness, wise counsel, and steadfast encouragement through life’s challenges made her beloved by many. She was a ray of sunshine because of her infectious enthusiasm for life and the joy she brought to others.

  A Depressing Day in Heaven:

  Paradise loses more than just a councilor when we say goodbye to Elizabeth Laurie; we also lose a steadfast supporter and a fervent advocate. Her contributions have surely made Paradise a better place, and her legacy endures in the community she cherished. Let’s honor the life and accomplishments of Elizabeth Laurie, a great lady who was a leader, a loyal friend, and an advocate for a better Paradise, even as we grieve.
