Dear Cheryl, Steven, Brian. Adam and Lisa,

I am truly sorry to hear of Elaine passing. She was the most kindness and caring person I have ever met. When she would go see your dad at the nursing home, she would also make time for all the patients there. Always a kind word to all of them. I will miss her and our telephone calls. I will keep her in my prayers and I am again, so sad to hear,
Jill Masso
