She has 2 great- grandchildren Rustyn and Ridge that she adored and when she recently found out 1 more was on the way she replied she was so happy because Laci and Logan made the prettiest babies and hoped they would bless us with a house full. She later said that no wander her grandbabies are so beautiful because she had the most beautiful granddaughter and of course a few minutes later she could not leave out her son-in-law she had to brag on how handsome he was and how proud she was of all of them.
Elbie was known for making everyone feel like a life-long friend. She loved to talk about how proud she was of her family. Everyone that met her learned very quickly about all her children’s accomplishments.
The world is a sadder place without Elbie in our lives. She touched each one of our hearts and has left us with memories we will cherish forever. Thank you.
