My deepest Sympathy to Sola and Michael, in the loss of Your Sister and Aunt, I remember Elsie when I was in the Choir at St. Mary's when she was the Organist, also remember her for all the years she lived on Church Street, and when I was Young remember the store her Parents had, and then became the place of employment of My Late Mother "Mildred". May She rest in Peace, She has certainly accomplished much in Her life.

she influenced me to earn a degree in Accounting which shaped my business & personal life for ever. I was fortunate to meet Elsie last year at restaurant and expressed

my apreciation of having her as a teacher who made a great impact upon my life. Thanks Elsie George Zaharchuk Class of 42
