Left to cherish her memory are her husband of 61 years Charlie; daughter Brenda (Don) and precious grandchildren, Jeff (Trish), Marissa and Curtis.

Elsie was a lifelong resident of Oakbank, and spent more than 30 years working for the RM of Springfield. After her retirement, she and Charlie traveled to the US where they made many friends at their winter home in Mesa, Arizona.
