Elaine was a beautiful lady inside and out. Will have fond memories of our cruise in 2009 and playing tennis at the Plex. I was sadden to hear the news of her passing.

I had the opportunity to work with Elaine in the 1980's. She was a total professional and everything she did was first class. She also helped to pave the way for women to be successful in media, and was an excellent role model for everyone. My condolences to her family.

I've had the pleasure of working with Elaine for the last 6 years and found her to be a remarkable woman. A true class act. I'll miss our various conversations and her genuine nature. Team Chicago and I will miss you.

Elaine and Video Features were one of my first clients (1997). Over the years, we became friends -- I always treasured our talks. She always asked about my family and exuded a real compassion and a passion for living. Elaine Green will be missed.
