Mary Estelle Elder

Elder Family,Please know, my thoughts and prayers are with you today and always. Your Mother held a very special place in my heart and those of my family. She was a friend, a counselor, a mentor, and role model to me for more than 50 years. She treated me, and my son Damon, like family and we loved her immensely. She was always supportive and a source of encouragement for all of "her many children". We will never forget the good times on Montgall. There are simply no words to express our sense of loss but please know "Miss Elder", "Grandmother Mary", "Red Cheeks" Ã?¢ââ??¬Ã?¦ was indeed a treasure and a blessing to all who had the privilege of knowing her.TywannaThe Session, Paul & McBeth FamiliesKansas City

the days with Red Cheeks on Montgall, during our high school years. We were always welcomed, no matter how many kids showed up, and she treated each of us like we were her own.I will always remember parties with her and how I loved to watch her dance with us. She could keep up no matter what dance was in style.I will always remember her friendship with my Mom, the two were quite a pair. "Ruby and Red Cheeks". My prayers are with all of you…for it is a long road to walk right now and God will have to walk with you!Love,
