sI was a student at Accotink Academy from 1978-1981.  The last time I saw 
Mrs. McConnell was probably in 2009.  I remember going there and just to see how she was doing.  Mrs. McConnell was a great person.  One of the things I remember about her is that she always had time for her students.  If you wanted to see her she would make time and see her students that went there.  I am sorry to hear that she died.  What she has done by starting Accotink Academy has helped my husband Gerry Conlon who I met at Accotink Acadmy myself and others.  Thank You for what you have done for people with learning disabilities.

 Mr.McConnell Mark and family, I think the greatest day of my life besides knowing my parents  was meeting Mrs.McConnell and attending the greatest school in the world for kids who really need help!  I still remember it to this day and haven't forgotten all the wonderful things she has done for me and people like me who really needed help.  My deepest condolences,  and I know Heaven is all the more fun.  I remember one year we had a wonderful thanksgiving meal at the house.   Mrs.McConnell will always be very dear to my heart.

Our prayers to the family and friends. God bless you Elaine, Heaven received another Angel...

You will be missed!  My thoughts and prayers are with your family.  Thanks for such a wonderful school.

The County and the Commonwealth has lost a great innovator and leader. I have lost a close friend and mentor.

Dear Mr. McConnell and Family,
You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers for comfort at this time. 
Mrs. McConnell was a strong, yet caring business woman whose dream was to build the Accotink Academy as it is today. We are proud to be a part of her dream.

Mrs. McConnell, we will miss you riding down the street with your scooter.  Thank you for understanding our unique needs in our community

Elaine you advocated for those who couldn't and you were honest and true to your word. May you rest in peace!

My condolences for your loss..God bless all..

I am proud to have served on the Police Department and proud to have known and work closely with Elaine.  She was a fearless supporter of law enforcement and the community she worked so hard to serve.  You will always be remembered fondly with a huge thank you for all you did to make our world better.  May God Bless your family at this time of loss and celebrate your life as we all shed a tear and reflect on the many gifts you have given.

My thoughts and prayers are with the McConnell family.  Elaine lived a full, rewarding life, and will always be remembered by her colleagues.

Elaine:Thank you for giving me the light to shine.

Our loss is Heaven's gain. Accotink will never be the same without you. We will miss you, but you will always be in our hearts.

I miss you very much, Mrs. McConnell!  I love you.

So sad to hear of her passing, condolences to Mac and the family.

Supervisor McConnell was a true advocate for education and her constituents.  She understood the power of listening and then acting for the good of her district constituents and all county residents.  Her loyalty to this county and her constituents were unmatched.  Her governing was a testament to common sense, fiscal understanding and, the understanding of the art of compromise,   Her passion to help others through county leadership is missed.
Our thoughts go to the McConnell family at this time.
