While I didn't know Elaine for long, I adored her! She had moxie, a great sense of humor, and she lived her life the way she wanted. I know she is now at peace, with her glass of wine, her family and friends that were waiting for her, and she's catching them up on all the happens. We are so sorry for her children who are left with only memories, but we know those memories will bring laughter once the tears are shed. Our thoughts are with you. Sharon and David Kitchens
