You will be missed. All the family oral history that you we're able to produce at any time, for any question. Aunt Elva, you are in our hearts forever.

Renata, We share in the loss of Aunt Elva. A wonderful woman; a wonderful partner with Uncle Barney. I feel fortunate to have been introduced to and have been able to spend time with both of your parents through my selected family.

I cherish the youthful voice, stories, full cookie jar, and humor. She was a night owl whose conversation made you want to stay up late! There is just no one else quite like her!
