As a child I spent many hours "hanging out" at the Kovac home, mostly with Annette and other neighbor girls. Elyse thought of me as "that bratty little kid" that was always around. I always thought that she, Annette and their mom were awesome! As adults I had minimal contact with her, but every visit was memorable. She was gutsy, beutiful and loving and I know her family will be missing her. Sincere condolences to all of the family. Arleen (Klitz) Klug

She was one of the most amazing persons I was proud to know, a heart of gold and fierce competitor, always willing to listen and help those who needed help. Will miss that smile, those words of wisdom and advise. Wish I could be there to say my sincere condolences to the family. Always in our hearts and prayers.

My sincere condolences to all of Elyse's family. Elyse was one of the kindest and most generous persons I've ever known. I first met her through the Barrington Area Arts Council. Elyse was an angel behnd the scenes to that wonderful organization. She was also a longtime member of the Countryside Readers in Barrington. We will miss her greatly.

One of the nicest and most sincere people I have ever met. Her passion for trying to bring the best out in others was simply amazing and I consider myself lucky to have known this amazing woman. Much love to the family at this difficult time.
