Sherrie, Scott, Shelley and family,
Remembering your mother, Elva, tonight with such fond memories of our times together in Markham
and at Stayner Campgrounds!! Oh, the stories we would share, usuallly leading to laughter and tears!
Winston and I loved your mom, her gentle spirit, love for God, great sense of humor, and her love for
Don, and each of you, her children and grandchildren.
Though I sent you a private note, I also wanted to share a public tribute to honor her life and what
she meant to us and so many... to everyone who came in touch with her, Elva was a shining light of
love and Godly wisdom.
She will be in our hearts and memories as we look forward to our meeting once again with her and
Don in the presence of our Lord Jesus, who she dearly loves, as we worship Him and share our stories
around His Throne of Glory forever!!!
Though you also have the hope of seeing them again, we know you will be missing your mom, Elva,
and your dad, Don, so we are praying for your comfort and strength to face those lonely days ahead
until all are reunited in our Heavenly Home!!
With our love, Pastor Thurton (as you know him) and Lois xoxo
