Elizabell Williams
Elizabell, or “Willie” as she was affectionately known, came to Colorado to work as a nurse for the Children’s Hospital in Denver. Her love for children led to her coordinating a ski program for young patients with limb amputations. Starting as a small class with 17 boys, the program grew to become the internationally acclaimed National Sports Center for the Disabled. She also helped produce three instructional and inspirational films featuring adaptive skiing.
