Thinking of Elsie and her family on her birthday today. Remembering how she would always laugh at Ruben's jokes, even some that weren't that funny! She would say, "Oh, Ruben, you are so funny!" She always made us smile!

Dear Kathy, Dan, Gary and Families, 
Please accept our condolences on the passing of your Mom. I'm sure you're experiencing a wide range of emotions... grief, relief,  joy that she now has an eternal youthful body, missing your mom as she used to be, to name a few. We rejoice and mourn with you.
I'll always remember your Mom as being gracious and welcoming with a gentle way about her. 
Love,
Ed and Jan

I will always remember your Mom coming to our house to play mahjong with my Mom, Aunty Rita and Aunt Betty. They enjoyed sitting for hours, stacking those tiles! May she rest in peace with your Dad and Rachel. 
Love,
Kathy

To the Family of the Late Elsie Chang, 
Elsie's infectious smile is forever etched into my memory.  I still remember picking her up in the early days to attend FCF at Moanalua High School.  She had the sweetest disposition and loved the Lord deeply. Your family was blessed to have her for so many years. Your family was also so giving to her needs throughout her lifetime.  She will forever be your special angel from here onward.
Bless you,
Lorraine

The Chang Ohana,
We love you all. She will be missed but will still live in our hearts.
Love,
Steve and Rendy

Dear Uchida Family, May God's grace surround you at this time and may He fill you with joyful remembrance and reminders of His love and care He gave through Elsie. May you also find Hope in the promise of the resurrection when all will be made new.
With Deepest Sympathy,
The Malinger Family

Aunty Elsie was a warm and fun lady - so full of life and love. I'm sure there are many memories of  God's blessing and kindness that will fill your hearts. She will be missed. 
Love,
Daryl and Sheri

Dearest Kathy, Dan, Gary, and Family,
We will always remember and cherish how kind and generous Elsie was to us. Her love was pure and gentle and seemed to never run out. I guess it's because it was the love of Jesus flowing to and through her. Thank you for sharing your Mom with us. Looking forward to the day we are reunited at the feet of Jesus. . .
maybe with our Zippy's favorites! We love you all.
God Bless,
Deet and Jill

Dear Kathy and Gary,
My deepest sympathy and condolences on the passing of your mother. Sharon (in spirit) and I have fond memories of Elsie. She was a very kind, loving, friendly, thoughtful and generous person. We are so grateful and enjoyed the many Diamond Head Theater stage plays and the wonderful dinners throughout the years.  Gary, we appreciate your driving all of us to the theater and the restaurants. You were our private chauffeur!  Our conversations at dinner were interesting,  enjoyable and funny! We will always cherish and remember the great fellowship we had with Elsie. Sharon and I were blessed that Elsie treated us like family!  We are so grateful and honored to have been a part of her life. We will miss Elsie very much.
With God's Blessings,
Sharon and Francis Miyazawa

May God surround you with peace, love and comfort during this difficult time.
Love and God Bless!
Len, Tracy and Sanoe

May the many happy memories you shared with your Mom help you through the difficult days.

We are going to miss our times with Elsie! Such cherished memories of her laughter and kindness; as I watched her fave black and white movies, and as we went to plays and dined together. Can't wait until we meet again! Blessings and love to your ohana.      Love,
                                   Charles and Cheryl

Kathy and Gary,
There is not enough room on this card to express how I feel about Aunty. There are so many memories. But I thought about it and I don't ever remember seeing her get really mad! She was always so calm,  even when she was scolding you! I will miss her very much! Love you guys, Lorraine and Family

Your Mom lived a wonderful life with love and precious care of her family.  We will always remember your sweet Mom at church. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.      Love,
                           Bert and Sueann Morikuni

To The Chang Ohana, I will never forget Elsie and the beautiful person that she was -- both inside and out. When I think of her, the word that comes to mind is elegant. I'll never forget her lipstick smile and how she was always put together. I loved that! Praise God that this is not goodbye. She is rejoicing with the angels after God blessed her with the most beautiful life on earth. 
With Sympathy and Aloha,
The Sumikawas, Mark, Kacy, Andrew and Noah

We have  fond memories of our friendship over the years. Elsie will be greatly missed. She will forever be remembered in our hearts. God bless.  Till we meet again.

Dear Kathy, Dan, Sarah & Andrew,
The Lord is good. Our prayer is that you have a smile when you think of your Mom. My Granddaughter and I created this with the prayer of a smile, when you see it, of our God's goodness and His unfailing love.  At the Cross, Cindy for the Family

Dear Kathy, Dan, Gary & Family,
 When a loved one passes away as a believer there is a sadness on one hand but joy on the other---sadness because you miss the presence of your loved one, but joy knowing that one is with the Lord Jesus where their home is forever.
So blessed to have memories of your mom and grandmother. Her light laughter, her generosity in sharing special DHT productions always followed by a nice meal and fellowship afterwards. God blessed her with long life and all of you, her family. Praying God's comfort for each of you during this time. Love, Vicki

Elsie's family wishes to thank family and friends for the pretty flowers and lei sent to make the room so beautiful for her service.

Elsie always had a pleasant disposition.  I never saw her angry or upset.

In most of my memories, great grandma was often sleeping in her room. It was always a Wednesday afternoon and sometimes a Thursday, and I'd try to stop by her door and whisper thank you. Thank you for her generosity and care that I continuously felt passed down to me through the 3 generations before me, and I would pray that she'd understand I was grateful. My grandmother was, from what I'd seen, the closest to her and always working hard to ensure she was doing well. It allowed me to connect with Great Grandma more, earlier at weekly dinners at zippys, later through cards and home visits. If it weren't for my grandmas loving efforts to keep her in her home, I might have never known her. When I did speak to her, she always remembered me, which never ceased to bring me joy as I had been in her life the shortest as the youngest in the Uchida-Chang family. She had an aura of thoughtfulness to her. The last time I saw her, she wasn't sleeping, and her eyes still had the same thoughtfulness I'd always known.

So happy to have known Elsie! We have many fond memories of her, especially of her laughing. So thankful she and her family adopted us when we moved to Hawai'i.
One time, I told Andrew we were going to his grandma's house for dinner. He looked at me with a quizzical look and said, "Auntie Carol, my grandma doesn't cook." Then he said, "Maybe she's taking you somewhere."
At a restaurant, the waiter brought the check and Elsie got a card out of her wallet. Shortly thereafter, he came back and said, "Ma'm, this is a very nice photo, but I can't use this." She'd inadvertently given him her driver's license instead of a credit card. She laughed, but was so embarrassed.
