I think of Ms. Elva often. She was important in my life and I love her.
She made a difference in this world.

Reverend Inzer, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your beloved wife, Elva. You and she were a comforting presence at many events in McDermitt and Orovada while I was growing up. You are in my prayers.

Another angel has been called home. I will never forget when Reverend Inzer and his family would come to Crescent Valley for Sunday service. Mrs. Inzer truly was an angel on earth.

Reverand Inzer, I'm heart broke to find out that Miss Elva is gone. She was a great Lady and her race is won. She will be missed by all who knew her. May God give you peace and comfort.

Dear Preacher and family,
Ms. Elva was an important part of my teenage years. Inzer's house was my second home. She was a shining example of a Godly woman, wife and mother. I am very blessed to of had her close for over 15 years. I am who I am partially because of her.
Riding heard on Preacher was no easy job. In my mind forever her voice will ring "LAVERN, GO SHAVE!"

To the Inzer family,
I am so sorry for your loss. What a wonderful woman to be around. All anyone had to do was ask Mrs. Inzer and it would be done. I grew up in Carlin. Getting to know the Inzer's what such a rewarding experience. Mrs Inzer was the serious one Mr. Inzer was the joker. My prayers are with you.
