ELSIE LECLAIR This passage was close to Elsie's heart: God called your name so softly. That only you could hear and no one heard the footsteps of angels coming near. They closed your eyes and took your hand but you did not go alone. For part of us went with you The day God called you home. You walk beside us in everything we do. And there you will remain until we walk hand and hand again. Thank you for the years we shared. And the memories we made. They're ours alone to keep. Your memory is our keepsake with which we'll never part. God has you in His keeping, we have you in our hearts. It is with great sadness the family of Elsie LeClair announces her passing away peacefully into the arms of God, February 27, 2011.

We live on, Mom, counting our blessings, being thankful, and all the time thinking of the many great memories you left us all. Just like you would say and want for us all, we count our blessings for having had you in our lives for so many years. The memories are our comfort on this day and the days and years to come. - Posted by: Darren Leclair (Son) on: Feb 27, 2012

You can shed tears she is gone or smile because she has lived. You can close your eyes and pray she'll come back or open your eyes and see all she's left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see her or you can be full of the love you shared. You can remember her and only that she's gone or you can cherish her memory and let it live on. You can cry and be empty or you can do what she'd want: smile, open your eyes, count your blessings, and go on. I love you, Mom. D - Posted by: Darren Leclair (Family) on: Mar 06, 2011
