Elda Mae Craven

Bruce, Gene, and All,
I am sorry to learn of the passing of your mother. I did not know her well, but she always had a bubbly personality and seemed to have so much energy.

I have so many memories of Elda Mae and her many years of delivering meals from the Barner Center to the senior meals in Conway. She was always smiling and had a friendly greeting for everyone. I know she will be missed by many and you are each in my prayers.

We will miss her sweet spirit and lovely smile. Elda May was always in an up beat mood. I loved her stories about Belle Plaine and she always was offering her help.
