Elaine also enjoyed catching up with her sister, Ann, and spending time with her down the shore.  Elaine was one to always want the best in others. She was caring, understanding, and loved to help when she could.  She also enjoyed meeting new people. Elaine was one to treat her friends like family. She loved to hang out with her friends and go out and do different activities with them.  She was always there for her friends and family and wants them to continue to have the best life they possibly can.
