She was a kind, dignified lady. We were neighbors at the retirement home for 10 years, and I always felt I could talk to her. She was an excellent conversationalist because she listened to you. It must have become difficult for her as her ears wouldn't allow her to hear any more. I will miss her.

Elise was a beautiful woman inside and out. Always a lady with style and elegance. I will forever cherish the memories of her at our Thanksgiving gatherings. She ran a long and faith filled race. God grant her eternal rest.
