Not sure what to say?

Elle, you lived large and shared yourself so lovingly with so many. I will always cherish the delightful meals, conversation, and pottery time together. I know Za and Lucy are glad to have you with them. Keep on dancing, beautiful friend! Isie

Elle was a very dear friend of mine when she lived in Birmingham and I visited her once in Denver... we lost touch unfortunately. But, I have looked for her for ages and just discovered this today (December 2024). Elle was SUCH AN AMAZING WOMAN... so talented, so kind, so loving and so funny. What a wonderful impact she had on so many people. Thanks for being you. Scott

Elle had a massive impact on my life. She was a bright light and I'm heartbroken to know she has passed. Be at peace, Elle. "Why can't all men be like my dog?"

When she visited Washington DC for the Vietnam pilots gathering. Elle was a PanAm flight attendant and flew many pilots to Vietnam.

Had to share this one - what a stunner she was.

Anyone who knew Elle, knew what a creative, intelligent, and spontaneous person she was. We all have memories of hysterical things that she did, whether with clay, words, cuisine or other art forms. Elle, you were a bright light in this world. You made us laugh a lot, and you even laughed a lot on the day you died. (at Rita's insane sense of humor). May you rest in great peace my dear friend.

Thanks for all the laughs, love, friendship, cooking advice and ceramics. I’ll see you down the road Dear! Give Zsa Zsa a smooch for me.

Fly Free my dear friend. You are dearly missed.
