Elizabeth Ann Abaunza ’93
The class honors the memory of Lizzy Abaunza, who died Aug. 10, 1996, in Houston.
Born in New Orleans and raised in Utah, Lizzy graduated as valedictorian from Rowland HallSt. Mark's School in Salt Lake City. At Princeton she majored in architecture and civil engineering, was a valued member of the WhigClio Society, and chaired a hip social program at Quadrangle Club. Friends plan to gather at the Club during Reunions this summer to share memories of her.
Lizzy's graduation was delayed by illness, and she completed her thesis in 1996. After leaving Princeton, she worked with the U. of Texas debate team, and was also involved with the Texas Exotic Feline Assn.
She is survived by her parents, Skip and Dinny, and younger sister Carolyn. To them the class extends its deepest sympathy. We share in their loss of a wise, kind, and generous person.
Contributions can be made to the memorial garden established in Lizzy's honor at Quadrangle Club. Classmates and friends with memories and photographs of Lizzy are invited to send them to her mother at 1740 Yalecrest Ave., Salt Lake City, UT 84108.
