I did not know Elvia! However, reading the story about her has moved me to send my heartfelt condolences to her family. I am so sorry for your loss. I do not know the answers as to why things like this happen. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family during this time. May God give you all the most profound peace and comfort and surround yourself with His love. We will meet again someday in the House of the LORD!
