GRANGER - Elizabeth H. Womack, 88, of Granger, and formerly of Edison Avenue, South Bend, passed away Tuesday, May 27, 2008, in Saint Joseph Regional Medical Center, South Bend. She was born on March 10, 1920, in South Bend, to the late Stephen and Mary (Balok) Abraham.

 

On June 15, 1940, in LaPorte, she married Chester T. Womack. They were married for 56 years before he preceded her in death on September 12, 1996. Also preceding her in death were her two sisters, Marie Dill and Irene Borders, 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 activities and organizations.
