Lizzie left early to be with Jesus, on April 21, 2017. She was always a little impatient – with so much to do and so little time. Elizabeth Barnum Badger was born on July 17, 1981, the daughter of Brent D. Barnum and Bonnie Cuff Barnum. A beautiful soul, she was truly selfless and the epitome of light and beauty. Don't know that there was anyone more beautiful in appearance, who was equally concerned with the welfare of the social outcast, the misfit, and the forgotten. She genuinely saw herself as being no better than the pain of those around her.

Her passions? The love of her life, James Badger, her children, Jonah and London, her Saviour, Jesus Christ, her family, Haiti Orphans, organ donation, and animals. It was difficult for her not being able to save the world.

Graduated Murray High Class of 2000, where she served as student body president. Proud graduate of the University of Utah.

Elizabeth is survived by her loving husband and 2 children, her parents, siblings, Ben Barnum (Angela), Cydnee Farmer (Bjorn), Julia Earle (Matt), and Patrick Barnum. Also, parents-in-law, Briant T. and Cynthia Badger and numerous loving and special aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews and of course many, hundreds of friends.

Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, April 26, 2017 at 11:00 am at Capital Church(no viewing prior at church), 1010 East 700 South, Salt Lake City, Utah.
