She is survived by her loving family at Jericho Road Church.
Born on the mainland, she grew up in Port Alberni when her family moved to the Valley to run the Somass Motel along with her aunt and uncle. She briefly left the valley to go to school in Vancouver and Victoria for bookkeeping courses before coming back to Port Alberni. She worked for Stone Brothers for over 20 years.
She was a volunteer bookkeeper for the Seaman's Haven, Bread of Life, and a number of other charities. Elfra had a gift for numbers and keeping books in order; and she used her gift for associations that supported the community.
We would like to thank the staff of Fir Park Village and Dr. Depape for their excellent care of Elfra.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Jericho Road Church, 5100 Tebo Avenue, Port Alberni, V9Y 5Y6 or the Seafarers Mission of Port Alberni c/o A.V. Christian Reform Church
