Elizabeth Spear I miss you my friend. You felt like a sister to me. We shared so much together and will always be one of the most special friends I could have ever asked for. You met me as cancer patient and survivor and I’ll never forget in December of 2019 when we drove 90 min away together right before Xmas to give a $5,000 award in person to a beautiful person named Gabi who was also battling cancer. We had such an amazing drive up there and back and you were just as much a part of Tony Foundation as anyone ever has been. You always wanted to be there to capture the special moments but didn’t want credit for all the amazing work you did. You were always there for me and then when you got sick it didn’t feel real. And now that you’re gone it leaves a big void in my heart. I never really got to say goodbye but I can still hear your voice and I can still hear you laugh at some of the ridiculous poses I would make on camera 
. We just had so much fun together. I really appreciated how we could talk about work and then talk family and everything in between. It has taken a while to process you being gone but I remember your faith and all the amazing chats we had about your desire to keep pushing and to keep going and keep fighting. I know things will never be the same without you but I will forever cherish our photo shoots, our events, time spent brainstorming on the couch together, and even the hardest times near the end when we became emotional together. 
. Miss you so much Liz. My heart goes to her amazing two kids that played with mine in the backyard and all of her loving family that was her rock. She talked about yall so much. Until we meet again…
