condolences to the family. I worked with this sweet sweet person @ the United States Post Office. I visited her home as she shared her recipes of tacos and tostadas. She always had a ready smile. Peace be still

Elvia `& I grew up in the same neighborhood as young children, Hoagland & Bass Sts. Her family lived above the Cologne grocery store on Hoagland St.
I´m so sorry for your loss & to hear of her passing. Please know she is at peace. Take care.

Elvia was truly a special lady. We meet and became good friends at USPS . We both had lost a child and attended grief services together. Elvia was a friend to all and had a heart of gold. She was as beautiful in the inside as she was on the outside. She will be greatly missed . My prayers are with the family during this difficult time.
