Wishing you all the best at this difficult time. Mom told us of Aunt Elsie’s passing and we are truly sad to hear the news. Our heartfelt sympathies to everyone. I will always remember the gatherings at the homestead when the instruments came out around the campfire with Aunt Elsie on the accordion and Dad on the guitar and lots and lots of singing. A wonderful lady and very generous. We shall all miss her very much. May she rest in peace. Love Brad, Sharon and family. xo
