me in so many ways. You were in so much pain but yet you did what needed to b done and you still smiled about it. We have
had alot of long talks and I am so very thankful for that time. Even though I know your in no pain now I still wish I had
you here with me. I love you granma may you rest in peace! JJ Julie (jj) Heefner _______________

Elsie was more of a grandmother to us then an Aunt. Always there to lend a helping hand to anyone who needed it. Very strong
and stubborn and we loved that about her. I won't be able to make the Memorial service but tonight in honor of her I will
be making chicken spaghetti...not as good as hers but I'll give it a shot. Aunt Elsie we will miss you! May you
rest in peace with Uncle Bob. We love you!
