Elaine Kalush Archer class of 1957
"It is with much sadness that Geri and I announce our sisters passing after a two-year long battle with stomach cancer. She peacefully drifted away the morning of March 29th, to be in heaven with the Lord. After being discharged to Hospice care her wish was to live out her days at home doing the things she loved, with the people that she loved. Some of those being playing cards with friends, teaching her grandsons Zac and Dustin how to cook Lebanese cuisine, watching her favorite shows, enjoying yummy desserts, Face-timing with Geri and I, giving life tips to her son Kelly, and sitting on her beautiful patio on warm days enjoying the sun and all of her flowers. Each and every day this month she chased that silver lining and found joy in the little moments. We are celebrating the fact that she is no longer suffering and is getting to enjoy eternity in paradise. The family will be sending out invitations for a Celebration of Life as we come together to honor the amazing woman that she was."

Geri & Janet ~
I am SO sorry for the loss of your sister ~ cancer has taken so many people from my life, and you have my sympathies. It's never an easy thing to deal with, but I hope that knowing that Elaine will not have the suffering any longer will be helpful. My thoughts, prayers and love to you and your family ~
