“I was very fortunate and I believe Blessed to have Elsie as a very good friend. We shared many silly laughs and thoughts that we could only tell each other. I trusted her with all my heart. She was a wonderful kind and true friend to me. I loved her and her son Andrew. She was one of a kind. I have never met anyone who was a true friend. Rest in Peace, friend. I hope someday to see you again. My prayers are for her family.”
