Elaine lived her life in a way that was an example of her faith. A life well lived. She is with her Lord and savior where there is no more illness or sorrow. We will miss you Sister in Christ!

Charlie and I offer sincere condolences to Larry and sons. Elaine was always so open and helpful when our families interacted when we were foster parents.

Elaine always had the most bright, patient, and loving soul. I remember her serving with so many of the children’s and youth programs at Bethlehem Lutheran. Many of The Bible stories I remember were first taught to me by her.
