I first met Elaine when her son Justin and our daughter Sophia were entering the same 3 year old preschool class. Elaine was always very cheerful and it was clear that she loved Justin and that she loved being a mom. When we went to her house for a play date, I observed that she knew what Justin liked and she provided many fun and educational toys for him. She had a wonderful smile and friendly personality.
She was delighted with Meredith's birth. I was always impressed with how much tender care she expressed with both of her children.
Even after she was diagnosed with cancer, I was struck with how brave she was and how she took good care of her children.
The last time I saw Elaine, she had finished her cancer treatment and it looked like it was in remission. We lost touch as our children were in different schools and made different friends.
I was saddened to hear of her passing and of the incomparable loss her husband and her children have experienced. I pray that God would continue to comfort her family and may her children know how much their mother loved and cherished them.
Sincerely,
Dolly Lee
