My deepest sympathy goes out to the family. Elaine was one of the sweetest people at Atlanta Public Schools. I have known her for about four years and I have come to love, honor and respect her. She had a heart of gold. She will truly be missed by her co-workers. My prayers will be with your family.
Much Love.

I am offering my sincere, deepest sympathy to Elaine's son, brother, family and APS family members. Elaine is synonymous with Atlanta Public Schools and, of course APS Budgets. She was there at 210 Pryor when I was initially employed years ago and she's been there for every budget of every program that I have worked with since...and she has always been pleasant and warm hearted. Elaine's untimely passing saddens me immensely. May her soul rest in peace and God bless each of you and her APS family with all that you'll need to see you through this very sad and difficult time....

The loss of Elaine leaves a void in my life like no other. We shared a friendship lasting over 60 years. We shared the East Atlanta connection and being little girls together. My sincerest sympathy to David and Bruce and the rest of the family. With love, Kathy

To The Family of Elaine:

I was deeply saddened to learn about Elaine. She and I worked in the same APS building for years and years though in different departments. She loved reading novels and so did I. She always had a smile on her face regardless of the situation. I know she will be sorely missed. May God grant you strength during your period of grief.
