Elizabeth Cardona, 57, of Woonsocket, RI gained her eternal wings on July 1st. She was the cherished mother of three children, Carmen Rachael Vazquez, Sara Melissa Vazquez and Eduardo Vazquez Jr. She was the grandmother, known as “Nani” to her three grandsons, John Joseph Morais III, Elijah Jacob Morais and Caeden Reece Vazquez-Marines. Elizabeth was born to Jose F. Cardona and Carmen M. Cardona in Santurce, Puerto Rico on May 26th, 1965. She was the sister of Jose A. Cardona, Wanda Cardona and Edgardo Cardona, and also mother-in-law to Henry Zepeda.

She was also a Member of the Concordia Center for Spiritual Living since 2019.
Elizabeth was truly a woman of wonder with an immense appreciation for learning, literature, and nature. She was a spirited woman with a warrior personality, whose infectious smile and energy could fill a room. She was proud and fierce but gentle, generous, and warm. She was not just a loving person, She is Love.
