To a great family we were honored to meet at the ICU while our mothers were together. We are so sorry for your loss. We bonded together to pray for our families and now they are both resting in peace and not suffering. Please forgive us for not being there as we did not know your beloved Elaine had passed away. Her talks, her spirit, her beauty was so apparent to us as she spoke the kindest words to us everyday while she was sick. Our hearts have been heavy with grief since our Lucy went to her place in Heaven. I know they are watching us from above and free of pain. May God bless you all and watch over you as the days ahead for all of us are so painful without the ones we love. Rest in peace Elaine...You were loved by so many..You Warren, your children, have all learned your kindness and your love..You should very proud of them, as they are of you...Thank you for being there for us! We will never forget "The Baxters"

Love

The Baxter Family, I remember Dolly from many years ago when I would babysit for her. I always looked forward to babysitting because Dolly was such a beautiful and nice woman. God Bless.

What can I say about Dolly that everyone doesn't already know? What an amazing woman, the patience of a saint (which was required in the Baxter household) and the kindness that was never ending. A second mom to me growing up and just a wonderful person to be around. My heart will always hold a special place for Dolly and I am deeply saddened by her passing, more so for her family. I am a better person for having knowing her and also for having the privilege of spending a lot of my teenage years in that house with the entire family. She would always welcome people into her home with open arms...sometimes even to strangers...."Come in lovely" she would say...and assuming they were a friend of someone would say "I don’t even know who the devil that is"!
She had a gift of making you smile, laugh and feel loved.
Much Love to you and your family, you will be missed.
XOXO
