My husband and I met Elaine through Aldrich Fish and Game Club. She welcomed us in as new members and became a friend we were always happy to greet. Her warm smile and kind ways were a wonderful greeting. Heaven gained and we lost.

My condolences to the Whitmore family. Me and my sister was one of the children she would watch during hunting season and other special occasions. It was like a second home growing up with Norris, Doug, Joey, and Mille. Mrs. Whitmore as I know her was a wonderful person. May the Great God and Savior Christ Jesus comfort your hearts and minds during this time of mourning.
