Elizabeth received her Bachelor of Nursing (BSN) from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA in the year 1955. Her passion for nursing was not only a field of study but also a lifelong pursuit. Shortly afterward, she married Delmar James Srock on October 29th, 1960 at St. Conrad’s Church in their hometown of Meridian.
