She is survived by her devoted parents, Jose and Miriam Rodriquez, her caring brother, Ricardo Rodriquez, her beloved husband, Travis Thompson, and her cherished son, Alden Thompson.
Lizette was a devoted and loving mother whose greatest joy was her family. She dedicated her career to education and lifelong learning, starting as a Learning Specialist at Palm Beach State College. After earning a Master’s degree from Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina, she became an Instructor and Coordinator of the Math Foundations Program at Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, North Carolina.

Lizette touched many lives through her teaching, inspiring countless students with her knowledge and kindness.
She had a zest for life, enjoying travel and adventure, and was an ardent fan of the Miami Dolphins. Lizette loved the beach and had a deep affection for animals, especially her beloved chiweenie, Chica.
