If you knew Elaine, you knew she had love for collecting Barbies, Elvis memorabilia, jewelry, DVD movies. She would stay busy with working puzzles, scratch offs and crafts. You also knew never to call her Frankie "ha-ha" nor to fight her over her food. She was a meat lover, and loved those special occasions to Red Lobster or outing to Captain D's.
