Not sure what to say?

To Elsa Sometimes you meet someone in a crowd An acquaintance sure to make you proud Involuntarily you admire her for a while Radiance accented by a soft - warm smile You hope to catch her warm and caring eyes An image of grace and poise no one denies One is immediately taken by her joie de vivre Hiding any challenges she must face to live Like a star you can see without the night Her buoyancy creates a feeling all is right With today´s seemingly dark atmosphere You are thankful people...

Elsa was always so kind and gracious, to me, and her overall demeanor. Once when I was obsessing @ work, she gave comforting words, and made me feel safe.

My deepest condolences to her family.

PLEASE ACCEPT MY CONDOLENCES AT THE PASS OF YOUR WIFE,MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER. I HAVE FOND MEMORIES OF THIS BEAUTIFUL LADY WITH THE GENTLE SMILE. I WAS TWO YEARS AHEAD OF ELSA IN SCHOOL, BUT I REMEMBER HER GENTLE MANNER.

We are so sad for the loss of such a loving lady.
Gentle & kind with a forever smile on her face is how we will remember her!

Your family is in our hearts & prayers!

Dear Barry and family; I am so sorry to learn of Elsa's recent death and to let you know that I will still be in Virginia on the afternoon of the service, but will be with you in spirit. May her beautful smile be forever with you and all of us! She was a warm and wonderful person, and an inspiration for all she met. With love and compassion. Judy Pugh

I didn't know Elsa, I only know the tragedy of someone you love fighting Pancreatic Cancer. My sister, Mary, is only 53 years old and was also diagnosed last year. She fights her battle bravely as I'm sure Elsa did. My heart goes out to her family. My family is dedicated to devoting our resources to PANCAN in hopes that a cure will be found before so many lives are lost. I hope you find comfort in your memories of her.

I will always remember Elsa as he perfect Patagonia fit model, a kind smile and a beautiful & gentle sprit. I am sadden by this loss and did not realize we're neighbors until this posting. My condolences to her fmily.

There are people who cross our lives in tiny fractions of time,who leave an indelible mark in our hearts and our minds. Elsa marked our hearts and minds with her tenderness. We are thankful to have known her.

I am deeply saddened by the loss of this wonderful woman whose calm and gentility made her a pleasure to be around.
