On May 9, 1936, Elizabeth was united in marriage to Grant B. Hunt in Mason City.

Elizabeth was very involved in the North Iowa Kennel Club as secretary treasurer for more than 20 years. Her love of dogs also got her involved with the Iowa State Extension Service as a 4-H dog obedience instructor. To many people she was known as "The Dog Lady."

Elizabeth was also very interested in the Mason City Little Theater. With her excellent seamstress abilities she helped design and tailor the costumes. Elizabeth was a 60-plus year member of the First Presbyterian Church in Mason City.
