My sincere condolences to the Coxworth family. I played a very small part in Elaine's life, delivering her blister packs (and other medications), usually on Saturdays. Even during these brief interactions it quickly became obvious that Elaine has a beautiful spirit and treated all people, regardless of social standing, with love and respect. Joe

She was a very special lady and will always hold a special place in my heart. I had hoped that she would have had opportunity to enjoy Orillia, Lake Couchiching and being so close to Nancy and Matt. You are cut from the same cloth Nancy. Our most sincere and heart felt condolences.

Nancy and Scott Your mother was a one-of-a-kind individual and deserves to be honored and celebrated in a way that only you can. Nancy represented a beautiful and timeless way to usher her mother into rest and peace. We know you are grieving and distracted and we are here to support you through these difficulties times. Sincerely John and Elaine

Dear Al and Nancy, I send condolences at this time. I remember Elaine as a very sweet lady. She selected special outfits when my children, Joan and David, were born. I remember my mother saying she met Elaine's aunt 'Nancy' and named me after her. I believe Elaine also like the name 'Nancy'. I live in Sarnia and am unable get to London this week but I will be with you in spirit. Sincerely, Nancy Murchison

Dear Al and Nancy, How well we remember the good times on Shavian Blvd. for many years as neighbours! Elaine always had a smile whenever you saw her that projected such warmth and caring. Our condolences to you with our heartfelt thoughts and prayers.

Dear Al and family - I was very sorry to hear last weekend that Elaine was ill and then shocked by learning of her passing. Though I only got to know her in recent years through our family history research, I found Elaine to be a most warm and gracious lady, generous in helping us in our project and always welcoming when we visited. I hope you will find comfort in many fond memories of a lovely lady. Mike Bardon
