Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family. Although we are far away Aunt Elva will not be forgotten. Love and prayers,
I only got to visit aunt Elva maybe 4 times because we live so far away. Even so, I remember her as very funny and so loving. Every time she would leave we would all say how we wished she lived closer. I also remember when her and her sisters came down for my grandparents (cel and jean Farrell) anniversary surprise party, they were quiete the hoot! Ill never forget the few memories she gave me and I’m sure the same goes for anyone who has been a part of her life. Peace prayers and blessings to the family and friends of elva.
Dearest “Auntie Peaches”, We have loved and admired you from afar. Your sweet and lively spirit was truely one of a kind. You made me feel so special during our short visits together.
