Very sorry to read of Elaine's passing. I have known her since we were kids growing up on North Street, Timaru. She was a great friend of my late sister Pat Latimer. My thoughts are with you all on the loss of Elaine.

Hi.Love.
For the time we had together, you were the love of my life. I never wanted it to end. I know you felt the same because I'm still finding the "Lv Ya" notes around the house. I'll always treasure the memories. Tony.
