Elaine Llewellyn Obituary
Born in Jessup, she was the daughter of the late Attilio and Angeline Galli Terzoni. She was a graduate of Jessup High School and Marywood College, where she earned a B.A. degree in elementary and special education. She also attended the University of Scranton. Elaine taught first grade in Binghamton, N.Y., Dalton Elementary and Valley View School District before her retirement. She also taught special education, preschool and the physically handicapped for NEIU at Elk Lake, Easter Seals and North Pocono Middle School.
She was a member of St. Mary's Assumption Church, Jessup, and most recently of Sacred Heart of Jesus Church, Peckville, and its Altar and Rosary Society. She was also a member of the PSEA and NEA, WBIC bowling Association and the Penn State Nittany Lions Club.
She was a loving mother, nonna, sister and aunt who always put her family above herself. A true gentle spirit, she will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Her strong faith in God was very evident in the way she lived her life. She loved and sacrificed for her family her entire life.
The family would like to thank Dr. Anees Fogley, the ICU and 9 East staff at RHS, for their wonderful care and compassion.
