REMEMBERING MY SWEET SISTER

Elsie with Susan, Joe and Linda

Elsie and I at one of her craft shows

Elsie passed away in her sleep on December 26, 2017

These were two pictures I decided to put on this blog.  The top one was when Elsie's children brought her to Sequim one time. Susan is in the maroon top, Joe (Linda's husband) is next to Susan and Linda is to the far left. The bottom picture is one of her craft shows we went to. A reminder of better times.

On December 14, 2017 Elsie was in the hospital and Donna took me to Everett to see her.  

I will be forever thankful that she did that.  It was the last time I would see her.  We stayed over three hours and had such a nice visit talking about so many things in our lives.

Elsie was very weak when we saw her.  I just was hoping she would make it longer but she had so many problems. Also her eye sight was so bad I would have to sit close to her so she could see my face,  She was too weak to go back to her apartment from the hospital so she went to a rehab to try to get her strength back but she died in her sleep after a couple of days in rehab.

I miss her but I know she is in a better place now.  She loved letters and we had been writing letters back and forth since I got married and moved away from Everett.
