  5. To the family of Elvira, I just want to say on behalf of my family….our thoughts and prayers are with you all as you go through this very difficult time. We all hope that you will find comfort in all of the memories you had with your mom/nonna. She was the best of the best!!! We have countless memories we will forever cherish, lots of laughs, years of incredible meals shared, advice and life experiences that she shared that we will never forget, she was like a second mother/nonna to all of my family. We are all honored to have known her as we did. I know she’s up there with my Nonna right now talking and carrying on like they did!!! She was truly loved by so many, here on earth, as well as by the many who welcomed her above. To know Elvira was to love her. She always offered hugs, kisses, smiles, and…. spaghetti…”you hungry, I maka spaghetti” (and 10 other courses to go with it) that’s just who she was! We love you and will never forget you, Elvira!
