(nee Davis) was reunited with her husband of 58 years, Donald, on Sunday, October 26, 2025 at the age of 91. Beloved mother of Christopher Jacques, Mike (Carol) Jacques, and Lisa (Steve) Bunzel. Proud grandma of Kyle, Justin (Angel), Derek (Hailey), Elizabeth, Luke, and Noah. Cherished great grandma of Raynnie and River. She is further survived by her sister and best friend Pat Gorenc, her brothers Robert Davis, Roger Davis, nieces, nephews, and other family members and friends. Elaine was preceded in death by her husband Don, her parents Frank and Anna Davis, and her brothers Russell Davis and Raymond Davis.
Elaine was born in Milwaukee in 1934 and graduated from Milwaukee Pulaski High School. She worked as an auditor for the Wisconsin Telephone Company after graduation. Her life was changed forever when she married Don, the love of her life, on October 12, 1963. Elaine made a loving home as a homemaker for Don and their three children. There was nothing more important to her than her family. Elaine loved to play tennis at the Village Club in Greendale, attend mass at St. Alphonsus in Greendale, go bowling, and dance with Don at weddings. She also loved her dogs and to take trips to Crystal Lake in Marquette County. Most importantly, she loved spending time with family and friends and made a loving home for her husband and children.
She will be loved, remembered, and missed by all that knew her.

We love you mom.
