Obituary

Liz was born on 7/11/61 to George T. & Mary T. Mullan in Winchester MA. After Liz graduated from Mount St. Joseph Academy, she went on to study Business at Bentley College obtaining both her Baccalaureate and Masters Degrees.

After graduating Liz started her long career with Bain & Company, retiring at the age of 53 as the Director of Americas, Operations. Liz was so appreciative of her loving Bain family, with whom she remained very close throughout her retirement years to present day.

Liz married J. Michael LaTerz on September 27, 1986. Liz and Mike met while both working at Hood Milk in Charlestown. The romance began when Liz was out with a friend at the Front-Page Restaurant and noticed Mike sitting at the bar eating by himself. Liz always a caring person and consummate host, could not stand to see anyone eating alone so she invited herself to join him, and the rest is history.

Liz and Mike had many adventures of travel together and with friends. They bought a second home in New Hampshire that was enjoyed by family and friends. Many fond memories were made at this home that became known as Sleepy Hollow. When Liz and Mike retired, they then purchased another home in Cape Coral. This home as well was always filled with family and friends receiving 5-star treatment with again many loving memories filled with laughter. This home became known as Paradise Found. As Liz & Mike grew older, they wanted to be closer to family and friends and moved to North Reading to North Ridge. Here at North Ridge, they enjoyed the proximity of family and made many new friends in this very supportive and caring community. Liz and Mike had a love like no other. They radiated mutual love and respect for each other, definite relationship goals!
