I bank at CIBC and was saddened to hear of Elaine's passing. Elaine made each person she came in contact with feel special, and she always was so easy to talk to.

Elaine and I met about 25 years ago at CIBC. Elaine and I worked very close together and shared many lunch hours together laughing and talking about our children. Elaine was a wonderful listener and truly cared about people. She loved her husband dearly and her daughters Heidi and Denise. Her grandchilden Braeden and Damien were very precious to her and she would do anything for them. We remained good friends after we both retired and in the last year of her life we became much closer with our walk with Jesus. I will miss Elaine her friendship, her laughter and her love for life. I pray that God will give her family strength to carry on and to know that one day they will meet again. Rest in peace Elaine. Your sister in Christ Rina Buccini. - Posted by: Rina Buccini (Good Friend) on: Feb 22, 2012

Kim, I am so sorry to hear of Elaine's passing. I enjoyed the times we met up at Jonesey's and chewed the fat for a time. She was really a funny, warm person and I am sorry I didn't know her more. I recall how she shot straight from the hip, and admired her ability to see people for who they really were. Take care Kim.

I am so sorry to hear of Elaine's passing...I worked as a Med. Receptionist for the Dr. she saw many years ago. I only knew her from the clinic, but she was a beautiful person inside and out. She was so kind and always took time to ask how I was doing. She had such a beautiful smile! I was going through some very hard times then and she always cheered me up. I wanted you to know how she heartened everyone around her. I am sorry for your loss. - Posted by: Janis Richards (Knew Elaine from Charleswood Medical Clinic) on: Feb 18, 2012
