From 1972-1991, Elaine proudly served as church secretary and administrative assistant to the pastors and parishioners at Peace United Church of Christ in Schofield. She enjoyed her involvements with her church family, producing weekly newsletters, serving on committees, singing in the church choir for 37 years and with smaller groups including a quartet of women.
Elaine loved to spend time with family and friends, polka and waltz whenever she got the chance, volunteer her time and talents to benefit church and community, read, write, watch rainbows and hummingbirds and grow flowers. She took piano accordion lessons as a child, playing solos and duets with her teacher at rural school PTA meetings and with a band as the only accordion along with strings, horns and drums. From childhood through her adult years, she enjoyed many wonderful times at the family cottages built by her parents at Silver Lake in Lincoln County. She enjoyed decorating, sewing, and making crafts and gifts for her friends and family. She was a passionate knitter, not only for family and friends, but also as a volunteer knitter for the "Warm Up America Program", making sweaters for underprivileged children. She made countless prayer shawls for the church and for the Aspirus Hospital. After retirement, Elaine and Ed spent many winters with family in Florida as snowbirds. Elaine lived in the Wausau area for 89 years before moving in 2015 to Menomonee Falls and Germantown to be closer to family.
She is survived by 5 children, 7 grandchildren, 5 great-grandchildren and one brother.
