She will be greatly missed. She was such a kind caring woman and always had something nice to say about everyone. She helped us acclimate to the neighborhood 10 years ago. Love and miss you

Elly and I were friends since we were six years old. We were three months apart in age. We grew up in Cheverly. Elly was in my wedding. She and Larry were always a part of our lives.
Our last conversation a month ago was talking about all our memories. We laughed, we cried and ended by saying how Blessed we were to have shared a friendship of life filled with so much love. You will be missed and cherished forever.
