My dear Elaine, I've missed you. I've missed hearing about your next hat design, or that special recipe you've come up with. I've missed talking about all the crazy things going on in our lives, I just miss you. It's another year since you left us, and I still remember those great times we shared. Those memories will always be in my heart.
Sisters Forever....

I posted earlier but didn't see it, so I'll say again, a beautiful soul is at rest. From the early childhood and teenage days in school and church, she was always the same sweet quiet person.But as an adult she loved music. She served her country also.We know these past few years you have struggled. But struggle no more my sister, You are at rest. We pray for your whole family peace, comfort and strength.

We want the Family to know how sorry we are and to know that she will be truly missed. Her smile and her laughter could light up a room in a minute. She was truly one of a kind. I remember the good old days that we had on our block (21st Hale Ave), we lived next door to each other, and she was always the same. I am hoping that the Family knows that she is a peace, but she will always be in their hearts!! Keep praying, and know that she will always be your Guardian Angel!! Love The Davis Family!!
