Elaine Wesley Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Beloved wife of Thomas for 59 years, loving mother to Tom (Michelle) Wesley and Tammy Florian (Andrew), and devoted grandmother to Brett, Tommy, Bailey (Jeff), and Kyle. She was the cherished daughter of the late Robert Thomas and Helen (née Maculewicz), and dear sister to the late Robert Thomas Jr. Elaine was also a cherished godmother, aunt, and sister-in-law to many.
Elaine passed away peacefully in her home on November 4, 2025, after a courageous decade-long battle with Alzheimer's.
A true matriarch, Elaine dedicated her life to her family and friends. She was the ultimate party host, known for her love of music, dancing, movies, puzzles, and, above all, playing pinochle. Elaine's warmth, compassion, and radiant smile touched all who knew her, and her presence will be deeply missed.
In lieu of flowers the family asks that you donate to the Alzheimer's Association of Greater Cleveland.
A visitation will be held at Sunset Memorial Chapel, 6265 Columbia Rd, North Olmsted, OH, on November 14 from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. with a memorial service to immediately follow in the Chapel at 5:00 p.m.
