Elizabeth A. Moran, age 85 of Toledo, passed from this life on Saturday, December 31, 2011, into the loving arms of our Heavenly Father, joining her husband two days after what would have been their 61st wedding anniversary. She was born November 20, 1926 to Leo and Lenora Kehres. Elizabeth was a member of Cass Road Baptist Church and had previously taught Sunday School at Riverside Baptist Church. She enjoyed working on puzzles, collecting Nativity scenes and baking her delicious homemade pies, especially rhubarb pie. Everyone loved her pies, cookies and finger jello. Most importantly to her was her family, they were her pride and joy. She always put her children's needs before her own and cared for many of her precious grandchildren.
