No words can express the feelings of loss ~ But realize this, she had a Creator who did a "TERRIFFIC" job when Elaine was created and that's absolutely NOTHING compared to what's possible for that MASTERMIND with a WHOLE LOT OF LOVE in HIS HEART!!! Remember Barb what Jesus said to his friends, "I'm going to prepare a place for you." Now THATS a place where i'm looking forward to being :) Your friend, Michael.

I knew Elaine for more than 25 years, she was a wonderful woman. She was a Freind, and second mom to me. We shared a lot of laughs and even some tears over the years. She touched my life in a very special way and will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace, Love you??
