She grew up in the Wagner, Ravinia and Lake Andes area and graduated from Andes High School in 1964. In 1969, she married James "Jim" Rolston in Lake Andes. They later moved to Arvada, Colorado where they resided for 10 years. Liz worked at The Pop Shoppe and Lab Corp, she was a homemaker, a Girl Scout leader, and a soccer mom. Eventually, Liz, Jim, and their daughters moved back to Wagner so they could be closer to family.
