Elizabeth Jane Lord died unexpectedly at Harborview Medical Center and Hospital in Seattle, Wash., Wednesday, June 12, 2013. She was 58 years of age.

Elizabeth was born June 17, 1954, in Malone, New York, to Lloyd and Myrtle Jameson Drew. Her growing up years were spent in Malone and she graduated from Franklin Academy High School in 1972. She met her husband Stephen in Malone when she was only 6 years old, and on March 23, 1973, they were married in Jacksonville, Fla., where Stephen was stationed with the Navy.

In addition to Florida, Stephen’s military career took them to Texas, California and finally to Oak Harbor where the family retired in 1983.

Elizabeth worked for many years as a beautician at the Navy Exchange. She loved gardening and music and sang for a number of years with the Sweet Adeline’s. Her greatest joy was family get-togethers where everyone would play instruments and sing favorite songs.

Elizabeth is survived by her husband Stephen of Oak Harbor; children Adam Lord of Oak Harbor and Stephanie (Mark) Baker of Marysville, Wash.; and five grandchildren. Also surviving are two brothers, Fredrick “Ted” Drew of Brownsville, Texas, and Larry Drew of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Per her request, no services were held.
