Lizzy's obituary
Lizzy Becker Evergreen, born in Fort Lauderdale, passed away peacefully surrounded by her loved ones after a courageous lifelong battle with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Yet born with this heart condition it never defined her, Lizzy lived everyday with unmatched strength, grace, and joy.
She was a gifted athlete, a proud PC Panther and part of her school’s varsity volleyball team and varsity swim team. As captain of the swim team, she led her team to the FHSAA 2A state championship. Her leadership along with her dedication, despite her condition, inspired friends, family and students at her school.
Lizzy was a natural leader, she served as class president as a freshman and soon as student vice president. She was honored as homecoming princess this year as a sophomore, her passion for her life was there. To her family and friends, she was light, kind hearted, fearless, and full of love.
She will be missed by her parents, family, her little sister, her boyfriend Mickey, and her best friends Coco and Sarah. Her time may have been short, but she left a mark on this world. She taught us what it means to live happy, love deeply, and face adversity with a brave heart.
In honor of her life, we ask that you take a moment to hug the ones you love and to never take a single heartbeat for granted.
