I love and miss you Elsie. You have always been such a support to me over the years. You listened to me and supported me through rough times and had my wedding shower at your beautiful house. You are where we will all be someday at our "real" home in heaven. I'm sure you will show us around when we get there. God will be comforting your husband, girls and grandchildren as well as other family members and help them heal from losing you. Love and prayers to you Leisa. God is with you, let him comfort and hold you in his grace. Our true peace can only come from Him.

Bud, Teresa and Leisa-
I am so sorry for your loss. Elsie was such a great person. I have so many wonderful memories of her and what a great Mom she was, how she babied her animals, what a great cook she was and what a great friend she was to my Mom. I hope in time, thinking of all the wonderful memories you have of her will help ease your pain. It helped me in dealing with the loss of my Mom. I am sending prayers to you and her grandchildren.

May you rest in peace sweet Angel. My first interview for the management program Elsie ironed my suit along with that gave me advice on how to handle it. Another fond memory is when I found out I was having a boy and she was at the same hospital. I went to her room to give her the news. She was so sweet but honest telling what are you thinking another baby....I'm glad I had a chance to come to the hospital and pray for you.
