About Us

Elizabeth Fry

Founder of Beyond the Fork in the Road – Nationally recognized in the field of aging, Liz brings over 30 years of experience counseling and advocating for older adults in leadership positions at local, state and national levels. She served as a congressional delegate to two White House Conferences on Aging, testified on a variety of aging issues in Congress and was instrumental in passing legislation related to housing needs of the elderly. Raised in a remodeled school house with antiques and vintage items prominently displayed, Liz quickly recognizes items of value thanks to her parents' passion for antiques.

A personal passion, a professional commitment

Liz personally experienced the trauma of sorting through years of acquisitions and traveling through decades of memories in the homes of loved ones.  She understands how items that may appear trivial to some, may be of value to its owner for sentimental reasons.

 

Liz experienced the countless hours of sorting through her parents' possessions and, with other family members, having to make the difficult decisions about what to keep, sell, or donate to a charity. She understood the physical demand and emotional stress involved. She saw the need in her community for those who have no one to help.

 

This need resulted in the formation of a new business, Beyond the Fork in the Road.
