Elva graduated from Aladdin Beauty College launching a 27-year career as a cosmetologist. Throughout those 27 years, she touched many hearts, making friends with many of her clients who were dear to her. Elva loved the simple things in life, such as spending time with her husband, her family, and the more than occasional shopping. She enjoyed lunch dates with her siblings and visiting with friends. Elva loved her yearly getaways with her family to the lake, always bringing laughter and a smile to everyone's face. She had an uncanny ability to bring laughter to others, oftentimes with her nonsensical logic and witty sense of humor. Elva was effortlessly beautiful and had a personality and heart to match. She loved cooking, knowing that she would get a compliment for whatever it was that she made. She adored her nieces and nephews, as well as her plants, showing them off when the opportunity arose. Elva was a true beauty with a heart of gold; always put together with a sense of style and without fail, wearing her iconic curls. She was so loved and will be truly missed by so many. A memorial service will be held in her memory at a later date via zoom. Elva’s tribute was written in her honor by her family.
