Elva had many titles in her 89 years, but the ones that
brought her the most joy were wife, Mom, and Nana. Elva was a family
oriented lady who devoted her life to raising her children and doting
on her Grandchildren, and Great Grandchildren, and was adored by them
all. She was a strong woman who gave so much to her family without
wanting anything in return, but their happiness.
Elva always took pride in her work and was much respected in
her job operating the Telephone Exchange. Although it was a busy job
that required her full attention, she was honoured to serve her
community in this way for about 10 years.
A Simple phrase that describes her so well would be,
“She Loved”. She loved her God, her family, her friends, and
always saw the best in all those who would cross her
path.
She is resting at Sherwood’s Funeral Home
