Tributes
  1. To Jimmy Mandy and family
    We are so sad to hear this devastating news. Elaine was a second mum to our Steve growing up. He was at your place so much you joked that his name nearly appeared on your family Christmas cards. Yours is still the first place he visits whenever he comes home. The only blessing is she is now with Steven. With our love and deep sympathy, Michelle & Gary Foster

  21. To our beautiful Workmate and Friend Elaine (Dory/Gretel/Yvonne) how are we going to get thru each day at work without you giving us a laugh. Oh boy have we had many over the years.

    Everytime I check my tires, I know you will be us.
    Thanks for making the best wax melts ever.
    We will never forget you spilling your cuppas all over the clinic floor.
    Crumbs all over the keyboards.
    Driving the wrong way down a one-way street. filling up the lolly jar with musk sticks & licorice.

    Thanks for being with Knitted Knockers Traralgon from the start and thanks for 15 years of working together.

    You would give anyone the shirt off your back, you never asked for anything in return.

    Love ya friend, going to miss you so so much, we will think about you every day with a smile and a little chuckle and always have a Elaine story to tell.

    You are now reunited with Steven, but we are all so sad you have left us all so quickly.

    Love to Jimmy, Mandy, Marc, Ruby, George, Tommy, Liz, Irene and David xoxo

    Sleep Peacefully our little friend xoxo

  30. Elaine you have left us all with so many wonderful memories. I had a front row seat at Churchill Pub watching your love story start with Jimmy. Your love grew from just you and Jimmy into a beautiful family Mandy and Steven came from that love and that love sustained you when you tragically lost Steven. Your grandchildren brought more love into your life and you were so proud of them. When I think of you it will always be with Love and Laughter because that’s how you lived life full of Love and Laughter. Deepest Sympathy to all those that Loved you Give Steven a Big Hug from us. Rest Easy Elaine Karen and David Burke
