Goodbye, Liz. Thanks for making life more fun.

I miss you my lovely friend.
Thank you for making my life brighter.

A beautiful person inside and on the outside to. Quirky and funny in her own special way. Your Tweets are and will be missed. RIP now lovely lady

We will miss you Liz

Rest well dear one ?

Liz was such a beautiful soul. The world is poorer without her.

Bobbins… you were and always will be an utter loon. You lived life to the fullest, you never said “No”. You came to Dublin with me for a weekend for Dublin in Bloom. I think we’d only met once before, and there we were drinking it up on a Ryan air flight, meeting the famous Ron Finley, and allowing absolute strangers to give us a great weekend. You were my Toby Carvery partner in crime (hilariously the only place where you may not have been vegetarian for an hour), and you rescued me when I broke my foot, stuck 80miles from home. You were amazing at your job, your heart bigger than the role would allow. You will always be Bobbins. I will miss you, so very much. xxx

Thanks for just being you Liz…we will never forget you….

We will miss you always….

Dearest Bobbins. We never met but made plans to go to Wisley together and for you to come and visit me. You were fun and funny. You helped me face some bleak times . I still can’t believe that you are not posting your songs, your rabbit videos, some strange otherness that appealed to your sense of humour or irony. I hope we meet on the other side (if there is one) and I’ll try to wear my brightest red lippy.

We will miss our wonderful, chaotic, fun and kind friend. Liz, the world will be a less colourful place without you

Liz, you had such a big heart and a zest for life that left me in awe on a daily basis. You were so supportive of everything and were a positive influence on so many. I hope you’ve found happiness and peace. Lots and lots of love xxx

I will miss swapping seeds and discussing wacky hair colour, thank you for your wonderful quirky sense of humour and seeing the world in your own unique way

Thank you for brightening my days. You will be missed. Xx

Liz, I’m so sorry. You were one of the first people on Twitter who became a real life friend, first flowers, then social care. You were incredibly kind and always gave your time, which I was so grateful for. You grew the best flowers with Zinnia and I’ve no doubt you were a terrific, compassionate social worker. You will be hugely missed.

Oh Liz, the world will never get to hear our all-girl a Capella Crowded House tribute band. They’ll never know how good we were! I’ll miss our brunches and walks in the park and how much you enjoyed being with Clara. You were a wonderful, generous, slightly bonkers, beautiful friend. Xxx

We never met, but I knew you through Twitter. I loved your quirky tweets and you always brightened up my day. My condolences to your friends and family who I know will miss you so much.

You never failed to make me smile, and the world is a duller place without you here. Miss you Liz xx

I’m so very sorry for your loss and to hear about it. I worked with Liz briefly and she always brought a smile and good humour with her as well as having the biggest heart. I am grateful to have known her.

A candle is appropriate for someone who shone so brightly and was a light for so many. If I could I would choose one decorated with colours, textures and some half dinosaurs. Sleep well @Bobbins. Xx

Was very shocked to hear the news and the World (and Twitter) is a poorer place without you in it. I am sure the Zinnia Community Garden will continue your legacy. Rest well. X

You were brave, courageous, spontaneous, caring and open minded.
You’ll be missed.

What marvelous fun we had Liz, and how very, very sad I am that we don’t get to have more. My fabulous, generous and crazy friend, my brain cannot comprehend that this is goodbye. So many wonderful memories, to be treasured for always. In our house your will forever be Auntie Liz. Mel xxxxxxxx

We miss you, Liz. X

A bright light has unexpectedly flickered out and we’re left in Shadow but the light u shed stays in the hearts of the lucky ones u shone on.

I can’t believe I’m writing this. Our time together was short. You were so open and quirky and caring. You made me laugh loads. I felt like I had found a kindred spirit . I will miss you forever.

I adored Liz, I called her Bobs. We met in a mutual friends garden and got on like house on fire. We had a querky friendship but then she was a querky girl. My deepest condolences to you and rabbit xx

Liz, we had such fun at school and even more at the concerts we went to all those years ago. We never did get that meet up in the diary. You were a true friend and a wonderful soul. The world is a little less light without you in it

Our friendship was short in terms of years but big in impact. I’ll miss you so much, you’ve made me want to be braver and happier.

Sleep well darling friend. Mel x

We love you Auntie Liz – forever

Liz I have so many happy memories of growing up together as cousins. I remember sharing grandads special cut lettuce on Sunday’s at their bungalow, we always found it funny that he sprinkled it with sugar. As we grew up I always enjoyed chatting and catching up at family parties. Thank you for bringing joy to so many people both family and friends. Rest peacefully gorgeous girl, we are all missing you so much. Shine brightly x

Liz, your passing has reminded me of all our wonderful childhood memorises and all the times spent at Nan and Grandads with all our cousins. I have such happy memories of us at their bungalow and all the times we would come to your house for sleepovers.
I’m so glad we got to see you in 2019 when we returned to the U.K. for a visit.
Sleep tight my gorgeous cousin, you will forever be in our heart and thoughts. xxx

I am truly blessed to have known you Bobbins, such amazing things happened whenever you were around, and we’ll all miss you ever so much.

Dearest Liz, you will always be loved and missed. There’s too much to say and no words good enough.

Goodbye, to an amazing friend
Love Abi and Mike xxx

She will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her and loved her. Especially Christian, Barry, John, Wendy, Josh and of course my self at the Zinnia Community Garden.

I wish we could have been friends for longer, dear Bobbins, you were tremendous. I’ll miss you very much, but I’m so thankful we met. Go well xx

Dearest Bobbins.
We didn’t talk much, but your constant presence on my twitter timeline was a joy.
You were truly one of a kind. I will never forget the care package you sent me during the first lockdown. It contained lots of wonderful, random items, one of which was a Pot Noodle. This summed your personality up wonderfully! Other things, pretty, bright things, I will treasure forever.
You were loved Liz, and you will always be.

Kay xxxx

We are really going to miss you Liz. Love Jenny & Ron Carter xxx

We never met but had laughs on Twitter
You brightened the conversation
And made the day less shittier
Miss your input and intervention

Goodbye & goodnight Liz/Bobbins, you kind and beautiful human. I’m so sorry you’ve gone xx

Thank you for never failing to bring a smile to my face.
Taken far to soon, you are and will be missed.

Memories flood back to me of cycle rides to Lydiard and carefree times in your mum and dad’s beautiful bungalow. They come to me in radiant colour, in glowing sunlight and warmth. As do you. Wish we had stayed in touch Liz. You were a true friend. X

There are so many fabulous memories of you, Liz, that I hold and I am really grateful to have known you in my life. You always made it brighter and more fun – I will never forget our 40th birthday celebrations in Palma or our teenage years in level 3!. It is with the deepest sadness that I am saying goodbye – I will miss being able to meet up again and remember the shared times and create more. All my love and support to Liz’s family and friends in this very difficult time. xx

My lovely friend. I love you lots. You are so inspiring and kind and I am proud to call you my friend. Thank you for the times we shared xx

Such fond memories of endlessly listening to musicals in your bedroom, the huge long letters we would pass back and forth at school – fill with whimsical nonsense, and then going to gigs and festivals in later years… always such a strong passion for music! You were so funny, bright, creative, kind, caring and compassionate – a beautiful human. You will truly be missed, Liz. My heart goes out to family & friends during this difficult time. Cxxx

It doesn’t seem that long ago that we were at school together Liz, and although I haven’t seen you since those days, I have the fondest memories of that time.

Sincerest condolences to your family and friends who I’m sure will miss you greatly.

Rest in peace Liz,
Fiona xx

I only knew Liz on twitter, but a more caring, loving sometimes feisty young woman would be hard to find, a bright star beams down on us all from the heavens.
Much love to all her family and friends, xx

Pete and Helen.

She was an absolute delight to be with. No matter how she felt she always gave what she could to bring ease and joy to others. I miss her a great deal and send my love to everybody.

We’ll miss you Liz. Thank you for all the memories. xxx

We will miss you so much you beautiful soul. And I will celebrate you forever on our birthday. Rest well birthday twin.

Goodbye Liz,
Thank you for all the laughter. You were such a fun fabulous lady. You will never be forgotten. Xxxx

You always made a bad day good with wonderful nonsense.
All my love.

We only met at parties at Mel and Stu’s but it was always great to see you and you was so fun., up for anything. We will miss you, love Sharon and Ben x

Liz / Bobbins, you are going to be missed, IOW, Festivals, Swindon Christmas meals, random weekends in Bristol and random events in London. It was always good fun to be around you. Take care and have a good one.

Dear Liz, I have such happy memories of the time we spent together at uni. From not knowing each other that well at school we went on to share a house in Cardiff and had the best times. You were a true friend, kind, caring, always there to listen, you could always cheer us up when anyone felt down. There was never a dull moment with you around and I smile even now just thinking about some of those times. I consider myself very lucky to have known and spent time with you and you will always be in my thoughts, especially if I see an accidental heart, this will be for you. I miss you, and regret that we never got one last chance to meet up.
My thoughts are with your family and friends during this hard time xx

I am so grateful to have known you Bobbins, even if it was just online. You were such a good friend when I really needed one. I miss your sense of humour and kooky ways; I miss your sense of fun and how much you cared about everyone. I’ll always be looking for your accidental hearts x

Dearest Bobbins,
Your presence is missed so very much, your wit, kindness, and wild sense of humour, never went unnoticed and I’m so grateful to of had you in my world, even if that was just through social media.
I won’t forget you Liz.

Dear Liz, you will be missed so very much but never forgotten. Thank you for all the memories filled with love, life and laughter. xxx

Will miss you so much, you were the best of friends.

Thank you for all the laughs, kindness and understanding. You’re a big miss in the Twitterverse.

Oh Liz, you were the kindest hearted person. So loved. I will miss you terribly. I am so grateful to have known you.

I met Liz through Naomi Beaumont and we had a very memorable trip to Italy together with a group of friends. She was so lovely and bubbly and kind.

You were a light in all our lives. You are missed.

Only knew Liz thru Twitter, and as Bobbins, she was quirky and kind, and although sometimes anxious, most often jokey and fun.
She and Rabbit lived an interesting life, which I was always glad to hear about.
She will be much missed xxxx

I’ve just been re-reading our messages about craft and work and messy feelings. I can’t believe you’re gone. You were brilliant. Compassionate, capable and just lovely. With love and buttons x

Hey “Bobbins” our dear, dear, friend Liz. We are left broken hearted but the love, warmth, joy and compassion you gave stays. Little and not so little gifts and cards are perched around my house. Small birds singing out just like you. As are reminders of the things I made for you… we hadn’t managed to meet up yet… health, lock down, life commitments that seemed too urgent… but we shared words, and crafts and even recordings of each others singing. I feel honoured to have been your friend. You have enriched me. You have taught me so very much and I am following your lesson right now I promise. Rest well you are so, so loved. My love to those closest to you and to all who will miss you x
