The brightest stars in Elaine’s life were her much loved family. Her daughter presented her twin grandsons and the children they provided to further enrich her life, four baby girls and one baby boy. Her greatest joy was seeing them pull into the driveway in “the Country” for a visit. Life was never sweeter than being surrounded by her precious family. Elaine was a professional Homemaker and she took her profession very seriously, making a lovely home for Joe and daughter, Sandie. Church was always at the center of this family with many of her closest friends being her church friends. She enjoyed teaching Sunday School, Bible School and being in assorted Bible Study groups including Delphians and small studies at church. One of her most significant opportunities for service was sitting on the Sabinal Canyon Museum Board as a Founding Member in 1989, serving on the Board until 2014.
