I just found out last night that Elvira had passed away, it was a shock. I have know her for the last 20 years through Bingo. She was always friendly and caring, and alway had a smile for you. My friend and I took many, many bus trips to Las Vegas and Laughlin with her. I was even suppose to go on this last trip on October 12th, but due to health reasons I cancelled. My sympathy goes out to the entire family. Elvira you will be truly missed.

You will be missed Elvira. It is impossible to think of the St. Bernard Community without thinking of you. You were such a big part of everything.
Rest in peace.
