Erna was a great person. Whenever she saw me at work she always came over to talk to me. She raised a wonderful family and her daughters are all my friends. God Bless Erna, you will be missed. Valerie Olenick, Tucson, Arizona
I have many fond memories of both your parents coming to Elby’s to pick one of you girls up after work. I remember how your Mom would giggle when your brother would come with her to do the pick up and we would tell her, “don’t tell Dad!” It wasn’t me he needed to worry about it was “that manager!” My deepest sympathy to you all. Cherish all your fond memories. God Bless your entire family. Mark Cummings and family
