My name is Barb Oliver Bagnall. I knew Elaine from JR high and on. We would touch base at different times throughout our lives. I can’t imagine how the grief touches you. I needed to tell you she was one of the kindest people I knew. She shined from inside to outside with beauty grace and humor. Many years ago when I had a very dark time she remained steadfast in her gentleness and acceptance. Her smile alone would make your day…. I hold all of you close in my heart and prayers…. There is a poem by Henry Van Dyke that I have read over and over since my brother was killed and my parents died. HTTPS://allpoetry.com/Gone-From-My-Sight.
