Elaine’s greatest joy were her son and grandkids who she truly loved. She was very proud, loved them with all her heart and valued spending time with them. Elaine was always a hard worker, who also enjoyed her flowers, cutting off corn on the cob, making tomato juice, and canning anything else she could. She was a great softball player, a fantastic cook, and a creative artist in many ways. She always liked spending time with her friends, and riding the golf cart with her husband, grandkids, and her little buddy Cooper Phelps.
