Sincere condolences are extended to the family and friends of my dear club sister Dr. Elizabeth Holmes. She was a kind, caring , loving lady who devoted much time working with youth and rendering service to the community as a member of the Altruist Federated Women’s Club.
She was supervisor of the Altrusettes Federated Girls Club and Historian for the South Federation of Women’s and Youth Clubs, Inc. In these capacities, she touched many lives and always offered words of wisdom and encouragement. I was blessed to have had her in my life. She will be missed .RIP my friend.
Aunt Liz and my mom, Maria Green Foster, became sisters at the Wilkinson Home for Colored Girls in or around 1945. My mom was sent there at age 12. Thanks to my Sister/ Cousin, Cookie for enlightening me about our mothers history approximately 38 years ago. Since then Aunt Liz, Cookie andI bonded, we’ve been inseparable every since. I thank God for my connection with my Aunts Liz. To Cookie and Allen, you are in my thoughts and prayers.

To the family of Dr Elizabeth Brown Holmes,
It was difficult hearing that your mom and sister had transitioned. I fondly reflect the many beautiful memories we shared sitting on my porch reciting poetry, meals in our kitchen and naps in the family room in Alabama. Be comforted by the outpouring of love surrounding you and may your heart and soul find peace and comfort in the love of Jesus. Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal. Her place has been prepared for her. Take your rest Mrs Holmes, my friend and my deepest condolence to each of you that she so dearly loved.
Praying for the family in this time of sorrow
Cookie (Phyllis), Ecole and the entire Holmes Family:
Sincere condolences are sent to each of you on the passing of Mrs. Holmes. We served as co-assistant principals at W. G. Sanders Middle School in Richland One. We also shared the same birthday. We used to have a “tug of war” on who would keep the newspaper for July 14th. 😊; as if we couldn’t go to the local newsstand and purchase one. That was one of the ways we celebrated together. Mrs. Holmes was a compassionate educator who was a champion for every child. May the entire family find God’s peace and strength in the days ahead as you cherish the fond memories made with Mrs. Holmes.
