At Elaine’s request, there will be a private committal for the family and close friends at Point de Bute Cemetery where she will rest with her parents. A special thank you to all staff and friends at Victoria Kidney Care Clinic; many other staff at Royal Jubilee Hospital; and attendants, along with fellow patrons, of Victoria Regional Transit for caring for Elaine over the last few years.
