I am so sorry of Elaine's passing. I really enjoyed talking with her at various craft shows and was so honored when she liked and wore the sweatshirts that I made. I will miss seeing her smiling face -- Cathy Retzack

Miss Ebert was my first grade teacher and she was a gentle loving teacher. I think She was still a relatively new teacher and loads of fun. My sympathy to her family.

I was a student of hers in the 1994-1995 school year. Every year, she would make ceramic figurines for the 8th grade graduates of BLS. I still have mine from 2002. What a wonderful lady and 1st grade teacher she was.
