Four years have gone by and nothing has changed in the fact that I still think about you every day and miss you terribly. You would be so proud of the little man Ashton is growing up to be. He has such a kind heart and soul. He talks about you and knows that you’re in heaven with the angels. I love you momma. 

It’s been two years today since you were taken home.  I miss you every day but know that you are with me and looking over everyone, especially Ashton. I know how proud you would be of the men Paul and Clay have become, the woman and mother Erica has grown to be and the how much Noah, Cameron and Ashton have grown to be such loving and smart little men.  We all miss you so very much and think about you all the time.  I love you with all my heart.  Give Gene and Ann a hug from me. 

Mom, it’s been a year and a half and I still think of you and miss you everyday. Keeping busy is how I cope. Ashton is growing into such a smart young man with the biggest, most loving heart.  He remembers and speaks of you often. You would be so proud of our little man. Now Navada and Dereck are with you.  I don’t know how much more I can take with losing family. Please let Gene know I love and miss him too. I hope you are happy and at peace, that is what I hold on to.  Love you!

Beautiful Lady! So fun, loving and crafty. All those who knew her were blessed and knew that she loved her family, others and The Lord.

Sending my love and deepest sympathy to the family.  Elsie always made me feel like one of her own.  She would visit me at the office just to say hello.  She could cook up a holiday dinner like no one else and I will always remember the fun times I had with the family.  May she rest in  peace. 

To the family of Miss Elsie, 
She  always had gods love shine in her smile with the  twinkle in her eyes. She always welcomed and loved everyone, & loved her family dearly.... 
I am so sorry for your loss.  I hope in time her memories of her love for her family comforts you ... 
my love  and condolences,
Tammy Davis-Hawks

I knew Elsie over 40 years, I used to live next door to her. We would talk over the back fence as neighbors often do. We shared love for her beautiful daughter Beth, whom I consider my  daughter as well.  Beth would be at my house most days while I lived there.  Elsie always was eager to laugh at my dumb jokes or be concerned if I needed a friend. She was loved & will be missed by all who knew her.  Beth you know if you need to talk about your feelings or cry I’ve been there... I understand!  You know where you can come for the motherly hug “anytime”, always!!  I’ll see you soon. Much love to you & Jhon😘

A sweet lady and a sister in the Lord....I know we will meet again on that Beautiful shore , what a glorious day that will be. My prayers to all her family for peace and comfort during this difficult time. God bless you all , love and hugs from heart to all of yours !

Elsie was a phenomenal lady.  Through my involvement in IAAP for years, I got to know Elsie and Beth well.  Elsie was Beth's right hand.  She sewed beautiful clothes for Beth, she set up events, she laughed and enjoyed our events right along with us.  She had a spirit that lit up the room which she passed on to her daughter.  I will forever hold that dear lady in my heart.  My love and prayers are with all of her family.  Especially to Beth and Jhon.  

So sorry Mel Hoffmann.  May she rest in Heaven.....
