I will always remember her concern for those around her and their welfare. She will be missed fondly. Sad she is gone but happy she no longer suffers.
Love you forever, Mama!
I will always remember Elaine as a kind and welcoming woman, who accepted me and my daughter at her family events, never making me feel like an outsider. I have fond memories of sitting with Elaine in Provo watching the Fourth of July parade and enjoying the hot air balloons. When I was visiting Shelly from out of town, Elaine invited me to dinner and made sure there were vegetarian options. When I was in a tough spot and needed a place to stay for a few days, she allowed me to stay in her home, even though the family was out of town. I often reflect on that generosity as it was such a difficult time for me. Her trust and compassion kept me and my daughter safe during a scary time in our lives. Several years later, Elaine also gifted me a beautiful quilt that she made. Its happy yellow colors bring me great joy and will always remind me of Elaine and the blessings she shared with others.
My mother was beautiful, and she was so loved. I will always treasure the time I was able to spend with her at the end.
