Hi (Cousin) Bob and family Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I can remember some fun days when I was little having tea and laughing together. Only when I was little I was told to call her Auntie Elva even though she was an adult cousin it was proper to call her my Aunt. Love..... Hugs and Prayers Kim and Mike

Bob, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. May God grant you His peace and grace. Elva and I made many memories together in our growing up and teenage years during our days in high school, at local church services and activities, and in her home with our parents. Elva always had such a sweet smile and quiet disposition. Sorry we can't be there to express our sympathy in person........we are currently at our winter home in Florida.

Of want for something to say I have borrowed the words of Abraham Lincoln... I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to (have served with her alongside our God, the author and perfector of our faith, and the one in whom our lives are hidden.) brackets are mine, sort of. Blessings

Bob, Ellie and I wish to pass on to you and your family our deepest condolences at this time. Allan passed the news on to us today. Please be assured of our prayers for you and your family that God will bring great comfort and strength. We do rejoice in the wonderful hope that is ours in our dear Saviour, Jesus Christ. His promises are sure and certain and we can confidently rejoice in the truth that Elva is in a far better place to which we all look forward. May the love of your brothers and sisters in Christ bring encouragement at this time. Currently we are in Florida so regret that we cannot be with you to share in your grief. May the comfort of Christ encourage and strengthen you. Love from us, Gord and Ellie Cox

Bob and family, So sorry for your loss. We will be praying as you go through this difficult time. It is so hard when you know how much you will miss her but yet a time of rejoicing as she is now with her Lord and Saviour. I truly believe that the "Oil of joy for mourning" is the fact that your loved one is now pain free in heaven.

Bob & family - our prayers are with you at this most difficult time of loss. It was a privilege to know Elva as a neighbor, friend and fellow pastor's wife here in Listowel, where she so faithfully served God, His people and this community. We shared, with honestly and transparency, many conversations over our backyard decks - usually while Elva was hanging wash (which she loved to do). Most importantly she loved Jesus, and her gentle, kind spirit radiated His love. She was a blessing to myself and many, no doubt. May God strengthen those she held dear. Keven & I hold you in our hearts & prayers. Sincerely, Nancy Rooney
