My heartfelt condolences to Elaine's family.

I am left with the deepest sadness having read of Elaine's passing-over to that other-side.
The world will be a darker place without her light shinning upon it.
She was such a sweet, beautiful and delightful woman, always smiling, giving me fond memories of times long past. I have thought of her often over the years, even though it has been perhaps 30 years since we had seen each other. I was her beau for a bit of time when we both worked at 37th Avenue and should have pursued her more, in the manner she deserved and married with her when I had the chance....... a regret I'll have till the end of time.
Goodbye for now Elaine - will chat with you over 'there' - down that road we all get to......
