My name is Dennis Baker. I was a nephew of Carl Stople. Elaine was a wonderful alert bright person and she was a great mate for my uncle. I loved how they traveled together and played golf together. Our family looked forward to them coming to visit us. They were kind and generous. I equate her with my uncle because they were like 2 sides of the same coin. I will miss her. I am glad she had such a deep faith. May Elaine rest in peace.
