Elizabeth J. Simons

Elizabeth Juliann Simons, affectionately known as “Liz” was born to the union of William T. Tipps and Alice Faye Gill on June 30, 1962.  She joined the her Lord on June 25, 2020.

Liz attended McClain High School in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She had 4 daughters; Dawn Scott, Latrice Reed, Erica Beckner and Niara Simons. Liz was a nurse during her younger years and a daycare provider until she retired to spend time with her grandchildren. Her Christian home daycare was open to all.  She cared for every child as if they were her own, often keeping children past work hours to help parents in their time of need.  The most important message  she spread was the love of God, she not only spoke it, she lived it and provided that example to anyone she came in contact with.  Her wish was for everyone to make it to heaven one day.

Those who knew Elizabeth, knew that she was not a shy woman. She would speak and minister to whomever had an ear to hear a word from the Lord.

She was preceded in death by her parents William and Alice (Gill) Tipps, her step-mother Emma Lee Tipps and a grandson Jaquan Simons.

Liz leaves behind to cherish her memory her daughters; Dawn Scott, Latrice Reed, Erica Beckner and Niara Simons, grandchildren; Antwan Simons, Ashanti Simons, Darnell Simons, Antonion Simons, Xavier Garrett, Kai Reed, Isaac Ramirez, CB V, her sisters; Mildred A. Gill of Tulsa, OK, Minister Alice Wilson of Tulsa, OK and Thelma M. Tillman of Jacksonville, FL along with a host of nieces, nephews, friends and loved ones.
