How sad we are to hear of Sandra's untimely death! Her life will continue to be a wonderful example of a faithful and caring saint. We have loved you both for many years and pray that the peace the gospel brings will sustain you, Jim, now and in the future. We regret that neither of us will be able to attend the memorial services today.
Sincerely with love,

I am saddened to hear of Sandra's passing. She demonstrated remarkable strength and courage in her long battle. She met me at the airport on my first visit to Tacoma nearly 30 years ago. Her warmth and hospitality endeared me to her and the whole Ely family. I will miss her.##imported-begin##Terry and Faye Whitworth and employees##imported-end##
Dear Ely Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you today. We hope the funeral goes well and that your family has ample opportunites to reflect with joy on the life of Sandra. She lived an amazing life and her positive influence can be felt by many. She will be sorely missed. Thankfully, we know that familes can be together forever-what a blessing!
Love,

I was saddened to hear of Sandra's passing. She was such a quiet presence within our little community and I know that my children benefited greatly during their younger days because of all the activities, that I am sure, Sandra had a big hand in (Halloween parties come to mind).
Again, my deepest sympathies to all of you, but I feel that if anyone does, Sandra is walking with God and we should celebrate the time HE let us enjoy her.##imported-begin##Charlene Sugahara##imported-end##
We're grieved at the news of Sandra's passing away. She was an extraordinary asset to the church and the community and will surely be missed. Our most heart-felt condolences to James and the whole family.
Jacqueline is in Utah because of a family illness there. She will be, in spirit, at the funeral service with Bud. Sincerely,##imported-begin##Bud and Jacqueline Watson##imported-end##
Although we haven't seen Sandra or your family for sometime, we will surely miss her. What an elect lady.
May you find comfort in the plan of happiness and knowledge of eternal families.##imported-begin##Andrew & Kay Ward##imported-end##
