I was so sorry to hear of the passing of elly. I was very young when I knew her and sad I had not been in touch for so many years. Irene do you remember we played together as children?.

Elly was a sweet person whom I am so thankful to have known. She was the first one to greet me when I moved into our first home forty eight years ago. I will remember her and Sharon and our lunches always'

Elly and husband were our next door neighbors on Torgenson Drive many years ago along with
their daughter Irene. They were very good neighbors. Elly was a
fine lady. She worked hard. I
enjoyed our visits together.
May God bless this family.
