Personal Notes:
Marie Elliott was a good friend of mom's and the mother of another one of Patti's best friends, Mona. Mona was tragically killed in a car accident just after they graduated from high school in 1971. Mona was a beautiful girl and an amazingly talented musician. Marie's husband, Ray, a well respected Osborne farmer and rancher also died tragically in a farm accident several years later. Despite the tragedy in her life, Marie was a kind, sweet, positive lady who raised a wonderful family. She passed away just this year (2021) at the age of 99.
