Elaine, I do not even know where to begin, You always were,.......I did not know a minute without you here in my life. To say goodbye is not easy, I loved you so much, you were such a loving ,kind and always caring big sister. I am so grateful for the many years that I had you in my life. You treated everyone of your brothers and sisters with love and respect. You cared deeply. As I grew older, you became my friend, someone that had a link to my past and the history between us holds such a strong bond , that can never be replaced. we could relate to each other on so many levels. I know you fought a good fight and battled this terrible disease for many years and continued to forge on always, never complaining. I pray you are at peace now with our Heavenly Father, no more pain, no more sorrow, or suffering, Perfect Peace that passes all understanding. Till we meet again, Hugs, xx00x0 Love ya, see you soon, SAVE A PLACE FOR ME:)
