Jayne, Louise and Elice

The write-up you all did on your Mom was beauitiful.

I will always have a special place in my heart for my dear Aunt Elsie and I will always treasure the special relationship she had with my mother they were much more than sister-in-laws.

May you all be comforted by your own memories and knowing that at last your Mom is painless and at peace.

I am sure my parents and your parents are having a good time being all together again up in Heaven!!

Love Nina
