GRANGER - Elizabeth H. Womack, 88, of Granger, and
formerly of Edison Avenue, South Bend, passed away Tuesday, May

along with a brother, Joe Abraham. Elizabeth last worked in the
housekeeping department at Saint Joseph Care Center West. She was
a member of Bethany Evangelical Lutheran Church for many years.
While there she was active and participated in many of the

and her husband, Bob of Granger; her son, Darrell Womack, and his
wife, Jan of Granger; four grandchildren, Graham Snyder and his
wife, Jen of Granger, Beth Snyder of Brooklyn, NY, Andrea Phillips
and her husband, Aaron of Kansas City, MO, and Ryan Womack of

Camryn Q. Snyder, both of Granger; and by her sister, Elsie Spurr
of LaPorte.
Friends may visit with the family on Friday,
May 30th, from 4 to 8 p.m. in the Welsheimer Family Funeral Home
