    Dear Jeanine,Gary,Bruce and Jim Elaine will always be remembered for her many years of loyal service in the Financial Aid Office at Quincy College. Dad counted on both her and Linda as the backbone of the student-centered service the office provided. They both started working there about the time I graduated and left to move to Milwaukee, but our friendship continued and grew with every return trip I made for over 40 years. We all had Quincy College Financial Aid in common, but we had friendship which carried on forever. Our love and support to you all in this time of great loss. Love, Sharon Jochem Schmidt and the Jochem Family from Heaven

    Elaine was a dear cousin. When she was young, her nickname was Dolly. I remember many good times when we were young.
    My sympathy to her brothers, Lowell and Darryl and to her children and grandchildren. I will remember all of you in my prayers.
