Virginia “Elaine’s” life would seem too short to many, but those of us who were Blessed to be touched by her understand that her existence and the imprint She left on our hearts exceed the quantity of time that She stayed here.

Virginia “Elaine” was talented and adventurous in many aspects of her life. She was an amazing mother and grandmother and great grandmother. Not a day went by where she didn't talk about how much her children and family meant to her. Her family was arguably her most important achievement in life.
