Elma lived life for 98 years to the fullest She was strong, independent, crafty, and loved to eat a delicious meal or tasty dessert. She would always be ready for any type of adventure or road trip and loved to get her hair and nails done as much as she loved to watch TV "with her eyes closed". When she was younger she loved embroidery and sewing and taught classes at the Spring Lake Senior Citizen Center for 25 years. Most of all, she loved her family and did all she could to make sure they were always happy. She was truly a special lady that will be missed terribly by her family and all who had the fortune to cross her path in life.
