Elaine was my friend Alex’s sister, and she was close to my friend Steve Brunt. (Alex, Steve and I all went to school together.) My condolences to the family.

Andy, Dustin, Courtney, James and Max: May God bless and comfort you all during this difficult time. I remember the kindness Elaine extended to me at a TC reunion years ago when Andy reunited with former students. They were blessed to share a love that will last through eternity. Rest peacefully dear Elaine.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
Elaine made the very best Baklava I’ve ever had the privilege to eat! Every Christmas she would make it and bring me some. So good!
