Our families have known each other for alot of years, I'm at a loss for words right now. God will have a beautiful angel now. Elaine was my second mom for quite a few years. My thoughts and prayers and love to you and your family in this most difficult time. RIP Elaine, you will be greatly missed.

She was the best at stories. When I was little, she would read me the same 4 stories out of my favorite book over and over again. She didn't seem bothered that she'd already had to read them to me a hundred times before. And every time she would read it with just as much enthusiasm as she did the first time. Little things like this let you know just how loved you are.....
