Crookston Times
Readers: This Mother’s Day month, The SUMMIT Assisted Living, part of Benedictine Living Community – Crookston, is partnering with the Crookston Times to spotlight tenants who have children and/or grandchildren who work at Benedictine. Liz Thompson is being featured here.
Most anybody that has had the honor of living in Crookston the past few decades has more than likely enjoyed catching Liz Thompson in action sharing her singing and musical talents in the community.
Liz’s life journey began in Fargo. Both her older sisters were in high school when Liz was born. Her Grandparents spoke only Norwegian so communicating could be challenging at times. Liz’s virtuoso was apparent quite early; she began her “solo career” at 5 years old when she sang “Jesus Loves Me” for her church. She played violin in Orchestra and sang in the Choir through school.
