Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

Elizabeth Galloway Moore Shackelfor­d

-

• Date and place of birth: May 29, 1974 (almost the BIG 5-0!), Little Rock

• Family: Husband Scott Shackelfor­d (married Nov. 2008) and our long-haired dachshunds, Wrigley and Margot Moore

• My favorite place in Northwest Arkansas: Hugo’s — where Scott and I had our first date AND he met my parents for the first time; but really, in ARKANSAS — my family’s condo at Baywood Colony on Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs. It has been in my family for more than 60 years.

• A typical Saturday night for me includes: Out to dinner with Scott, then home in our jammies with the pups on my lap and watching a movie!

• The best way to help the children in our community is: Have open ears and open eyes to life’s dangers and keep your hearts open. Help those who’ve been hurt and do your part to protect our children!

• Something the Children’s Safety Center always needs: Handprint paint & financial donations (there’s always a fundraiser!)

• The last show I binged on television was: Vanderpump Rules

• Four people I would invite to my fantasy dinner party: My mom’s mother, Phyllis Patton of Dallas, who passed away before I was born, Prince, John F. Kennedy and Mother Teresa.

• The best advice I’ve ever received: From my mom, I think of it daily: “Look to your future and do not be frightened, but think of it as another step forward. Take the leap and do what you want. Your dad and I will always be there should you stumble.”

• People might be surprised to find out that: I didn’t always take my parents’ advice or follow their rules, as a teen.

• My greatest accomplish­ment is: My concrete handprint in front of the new CSC building. Emily and I worked together to successful­ly achieve the CSC’s Capital Campaign, “Healing the Future.”

• The question people ask me the most (and its answer): “What would you like in your coffee?” Cream and Sweet ‘N Low

• The thing that makes me laugh the most: When I am with my sister Jacque and my brother Richard. We can make each other ugly cry from laughing so hard — at one of our expenses — always!

• Three words to sum me up: Loyal, caring, humble

• Something I think everyone should try at least once: Handwritin­g a thank-you note.
