Memories from my childhood, many are of your Mom, Elaine. Her selling that insurance to all the parents of new born babies ( me included) , Church functions, coming by for visits. such great memories. I know that she will be missed here by her family and friends, but I know where she is now, and what a blessing to know that she is with her Lord and King. Hugs to the family and Prayers to all.

Mother always said that if ANYONE on this earth had a direct line to God's ear, it was Aunt Elaine. She taught us all so much by the way she lived and believed, and man did she believe! I will never forget you or the things you taught us, and how to laugh at ourselves - but most importantly to BELIEVE.
