So sorry to hear of Elaine's passing. I am so glad that I got to make contact with her again, a few years ago. I will always remember her as my "work" mum, back when I was at Bruce Andrews Lawyers. Of course, even after all these years, I still think of her every time I see anything to do with owls !!! She was such a lovely person and will be missed.

I have nothing but fond memories and admiration for Elaine, knowing and working with her since 1991. She was a very wise and gracious lady!
It was always a pleasure to see her and she will be missed by all.
