Elaine, my samma was the most loving, kind, charismatic and supportive grandma. I have been so lucky my entire life to have her by side teaching me lessons in life; she always had my back no matter what. She made sure my brother and I always knew that. The love she had for her husband John was such a blessing to be able to see growing up. The love they shared together and for their family was endless and I hope I can continue to live by all her values and make her proud. I love you samma,...

Elaine, you were a very special person, always kind and gracious. It was a very rare occasion that you and John weren't together enjoying your 66+ years of marriage. Your home was always welcoming and immaculate. You will be missed deeply by all who knew and loved you. It was a great privilege knowing you. Rest in Peace in Heaven.
