Elaine, we will miss you more than you will ever know :( You've always been there for us and we think of you as a family member. It really meant so much to us the way you took care of Nancy, and you have left a hole in her heart, too. As Rob says, it is amazing how such a petite little person can leave such a gigantic hole in the lives of so many, and we are so thankful to have known you! We know you're in a better place now, and one day we hope to be reunited with you! With love always, your little "Love-Birds".
