Elaine was such a blessing to have in our lives and in our family. We will always remember her most for her kindness, thoughtfulness and interest in others, but most especially her smiling face. She was a real family person to her immediate and extended very large family. She will be sorely missed by all who know and loved her. May God comfort and bless her family and may you always feel his presence. Rest in peace sweet angel!

What does one say when she loses not only her sister, but her best friend. Growing up, I did so many things with Elaine. No matter what age we were, we were always doing things together. I was always welcome to join her and her friends. All three of us girls, went skiing together, we went clubbing together, we shared our kids with each other, we were just a team. Like Shay said, now the puzzle has a missing piece that can never be replaced.

A true angel, I was lucky enough to have known her more through my sister in law Valerie. Such a true family person, my heart goes out to her family. They are blessed to have had her as a wife, mother, daughter,and sister. Her smile could light up a room and always upbeat through out her life and even in her illness. I will always remember how she lit up my nephew Blakes wedding just last year. I will never forget her and her profound love of life and family. She is among the angels now and I am better to have had the privilege to know her and her family. God Bless all of you and help you through the days and time ahead. Sending our deepest love and prayers Debbie & Steve Simons

I want to Thank Elaine from the bottom of my heart for her Love and Friendship to Magan. She became a mom and best friend to her. How blessed is a Mother when another woman can Love and receive your child as her own. They say angels walk among us- and I believe Elaine was truly an Angel. I promise to keep your memory alive for our grandchildren so they will always know about their Wonderful, Loving , Caring OMI.... Sisters in Christ Vickey Smith

I am so sorry to hear about Elaine. Even though I have not seen her in several years I still remember playing everyday with her and Valerie and Loucille and Roy David. She could not come out and play until all her chores were done. I will always remember those fun times. We seemed to be together at all the family parties. I always felt like we were all part of a family. I wish we had stayed closer in touch. My heart goes out to Harry and Karola and Valerie, Loucille and Roy. I wish I could have been there. God Bless You ALL. Chris

Our family is so very saddened by Elaine's death. I know she fought hard, and gave so much of herself to her sons and husband, and that she loved them dearly. We grieve for her family and pray for strength and peace for her sisters, brother, mother and father, as well.

You will always be rememebered for yur smile and your willingness to help your students. Some teachers just stand out to us as being remarkable and you earned that from me. Now you are walking and talking with God and his angels and you are now free from pain and suffering. You fought a hard battle but you always kept your good spirit and that unforgettable smile that could lighten up any room. The ones left here below will miss you but I know we will meet again. I am going through a very difficult time in my life but I know that I have another angel beside me to help me now. You'll never be forgotten!

Aunt Elaine We will all miss you. You were always such a wonderful part of our family. With all of your energy, love, and strong will you helped hold our family together. I'm not sure what we will ever do without you, our wonderful daughter, wife, sister, mother, aunt, and Omi. We will always remember you for your greatness of heart and be sure to do all we can to make you proud as you look down upon us from heaven. I kind of think of our family as a giant puzzle with every member being a piece that fits in perfectly. The hard thing is that when you lose a piece, the picture will never be whole again. Ever. I'm sad that I will never be able to feel that I have my entire family gathered ever again, that you will always be our missing piece. I guess we'll just have to remember that you remain as a piece of each and every one of us. We will never forget you and will love you as much as we ever have.

Elaine was the sweetest gift. I loved her so much. She was always there the help whenever and whoever needed anything. She was so in love with H and would do anything for him. Her favorite pass times were helping H on the job, camping, mowing the lawn, being with her boys, grandchildren and family. If you ever had a problem, Elaine was there to solve and fix it. What will we do without her? I will forever be blessed to have here as a sister and will celebrate her legacy as long as I live. I look forward to dancing and laughing with her in heaven. I love you all, Valerie
