Elaine was a hardworking woman who dedicated many years of her life to her career at Lanier Hospital. Her patients admired her for her gentle touch and warm personality. Her retirement marked the end of a fulfilling career, but it also marked the beginning of a new chapter in her life, one filled with family, faith, and love.
Elaine was a faithful member of the Fairfax Congregational Holiness Church. Her faith was a cornerstone of her life, and she found great joy in her church community. She loved her Lord and demonstrated her faith through her actions, always treating others with kindness and respect.
Elaine’s life was a testament to the power of love, faith, and gentleness. She will be deeply missed, but her spirit will live on in the hearts of those she loved. As we remember Elaine, we celebrate a life well-lived, a faith well-expressed, and a love well-shared.
Memorial services for Elaine will be held on Sunday, August 27th, 2023 at 2:00 PM (EDT) at Fairfax Congregational Holiness Church in Valley. Clinton Hadaway and Ronald Cook will officiate.
