I remember with fondness my time rooming with Elfie on an Italy trip.
We shared many laughs, especially the time she got lost near the Colisseum.
She made sure that I mostly followed the trip rules.
Keep the good memories in your hearts.

I remember Elfie fondly. I met the family when Fred and Elfie bought Kelduri Auto Court in Monte Lake from my mom in 1972. We continued to live at Kelduri for the first year and I spent much of my time hanging out with Linda and Allan. Elfie was like a second mom. She was a great seamstress and when I started working she made me some outfits. For such a tiny person she was sure full of life and boundless energy. My condolences to all the family.

Bill & I only had the pleasure of knowing Elfie for a short time but what a dear little lady. I think that everyone will remember that on any trip from Kamloops to Vernon, when you passed the Mobbs home you would just be in awe of the beautiful landscaping. When we found out that this little lady was responsible for that beauty we were amazed. Rest well Elfie ❣️

Sad day, but so nice to see Aunt Elfie's picture. She was always busy with so many things. The house was always immaculate, cookies in the tin, stopping for tea, serving dinner at the Legion, riding horses, keeping a lovely garden, travelling, and so many other interests. Thinking of all my cousins at this time.
