So sorry for your loss. Loosing a mother is never easy it no matter what earthly age they achieve. The one comforting thing you know is that she will be reunited with your Dad and smiling as they remember all of their good times together especially the love of their children.

I am sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. I still remember the home baked goodies she would make for the nurses especially on Mother's Day. There was never a crumb left. May she rest in peace.

- Heather Bailey, on May 6, 2024

I wish I could make it back to be with you. Unfortunately my health does not allow it but my thoughts are with you. I loved my Aunt always. She always had an ear to listen and sound advice when asked. She always had a “ love you” any timed we talked or saw one another. She was an amazing lady and a good sister to my mom. Her place in heaven is ensured. Take care. Love you Linda

I am saddened to hear of Elsie’s passing. During our crossing, I came to know Elsie as a kind, soft spoken lady. Elsie always offered a warm smile and an occasional quick joke I’d never see coming. I remember Elsie helping me fold napkins; I came back to a perfect pile, finished with a bunny ornament positioned like it was the one who did the job. It brought a smile to my face and is one of the impacts I carry in my heart when thinking of her. It was a gesture only a loving mother and grandmother would think of doing. Another time I shared joy sharing with Elsie that my grandfather was the principal in a graduation photo of one of her children posted on her bulletin board - a soothing reminder of the comforts of a small community. Sending my love to family and friends as you mourn the physical loss of a beautiful soul. - Elizabeth Snow (former TPR life enrichment aid)

I’m so terribly sorry at the loss of your beautiful Mom! I have heard so many wonderful stories of Elsie over the years and was so very impressed that she sold her condo and bought a house at 90, what a true inspiration! My heartfelt condolences go out to you and your family. I’m so truly sorry! Rest in paradise Elsie, or show them how to have fun! ️

- Brenda Carroll, on May 7, 2024

I spent a very long time trying to think of the right words to say. Loosing your Mom is monumental. She was a beautiful, strong fearless Mom, wife and Mother. She raised a good man. We all love you. I wrote a whole long story and posted it in Facebook. Unfortunately I repeatedly tried ,to copy and paste in this site but it wouldn’t work. Our thoughts will be with you all on Thursday. You were very fortunate to have such an amazing Mom. Elsie enjoy your journey, heaven will love you. Your my hero… A LIFE WELL LIVED… MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCES AND ADMIRATION Cathy, Debbie and David’s sister in law.
