Passed suddenly but peacefully May 17, 2023, after an injury. Born January 21, 1992, beloved only child of William and Kathleen Trayner. Liz was of Indo-Fijian/Samoan heritage, born in New Westminster, and adopted at just 13 days old.
Predeceased by grandparents James and Phyllis Trayner. Survived by her grandparents Jean and George Worden, Doug Worden/Susan Brooks, Paul and Barb Trayner, Henk and Mary Luyten, Jim and Anne Trayner, many cousins, extended family and countless close friends.
Attended St. Patrick’s, St. Andrew’s and Camosun College. She travelled to Thailand, France, Ireland and Quebec. She was courageous, determined and touched so many people with her kind heart. The last years saw a rare passion for social justice and the homeless. She rejoiced in nature, all beaches, and warm summers camping with family throughout BC. She loved all creatures, especially her beloved dog Chomper.
A Funeral Mass and reception will be held at St. Patrick’s Parish, Friday, June 16, 2023, at 12:10 pm. All are welcome. Flowers welcome, but please consider donations to the Umbrella Society or any charity for the homeless.

Liam Henderson Lizzie was someone who I can’t ever remember without a smile on her face. Kind, funny, pretty rambunctious at times, my elementary and highschool memories of her are all so bright. Our paths may not have crossed in many years but I can feel her absence all the same. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Lots of love from my little family to yours in this time of grieving.

Michael Johnson We only met you for a brief moment in time but your beauty and radiance shone through. Taken far too soon and so suddenly. Across the many miles of oceans that separate us our thoughts are with you, my brother Bill and Kathy. Sadly nothing can bring back Elizabeth, nothing. Your memories of her as such a beautiful human being will hopefully sustain you in your grief. Fair winds and calm seas on her journey. Much love from England. Michael and Elizabeth.

Leona (Crystal) Liz/Meg..
Sometimes you were like a sister…sometimes you were more like a daughter.
You were ALWAYS a friend.
I am hosting a “Livin it up for Liz” day on Faerie day…since you liked that day.
I invited the usual…we will listen to the music you liked…eat snacks you liked.
We will for sure spill a drink…obviously!
I have made little memory bags…You would love this so much…and that makes me happy.
I bought a garnet heart shaped earring and will wear it in the hole you pierced for me. ..I will think of you every time I see my reflection.
Thank you for being in our lives.
We all love you so much.Project positive energy,
Dance,
Eat ,
Sleep,
buy better beer.
