Elise was my neighbour at 40 Homewood. I lived across from her for over fifteen years. She was so kind, warm and welcoming when I moved in. She immediately felt like family to me. She was such an interested and caring soul. I moved away recently and just learned of her passing. I am saddened by her loss. My sincerest condolences to her family, friends and neighbours.

Elise was a loved and much admired resident at 40 Homewood. Many of us are saddened by her death and will miss her. She always retained her own sense of style, even during the times she was weakened by sickness. She was a great neighbour, kind, smart and caring about those around her. Elise has left behind heavy hearts.

Elise was a very valued member of our extended family for more than 50 years. She had an extremely pleasant manner and a love of all things creative and joyful. We spent many wonderful holiday seasons together and always enjoyed her perspective on many topics but especially art, music, and human foibles. She had a wonderful sense of humour and a warm demeanor that will be greatly missed by anyone who knew her.

I always thought of Elise as a creative, empathetic and unconventional individual. She was in my life from the beginning and it's hard to imagine a world without her. I loved to listen to her tell stories about her job and childhood. A great storyteller and a thoughtful gift giver, I always looked forward to opening things from her. Though in return she was impossible to shop for. Her love for art and travel will always stick with me to appreciate the same. Thanks to Elise for being a member of our extended family and for loving us the way she did. We love and miss you.

Elise had a wonderfully warm way about her. I’ll miss her terribly - she was able to make me laugh always. She came to many family celebrations, and realized how special spending those times together were, regardless of her faith. We shared a love of ‘lip stuff’, and she always made sure to have her Clarins at the ready. She will missed ❤️

My close friendship with Elise goes back 40 years. The last few years were very challenging but she always greeted me with her brilliant smile. She had wonderful fashion sense and had a style all her own. So often my daughters Kathi and Hilary and I would see something and say “That’s so Elise. “ And her hair and the never ending hair products used to tame it always made us laugh She was an honorary aunt in our family and was part of many family celebrations. We shall all miss our kind, caring and generous, Elise. She was an extraordinary person who would do anything to help others . I will never forget her and the memories we shared. My whole family extends our condolences to her family whose loss is immeasurable.

I was so sad to hear this news. Elise and I were good friends through school and shared so many fun times together. Unfortunately we lost touch over the years, I moved out of Toronto, but I will always have such good memories of Elise. I’m so sorry for your loss and may her memory bring comfort to her friends and family.

We are so sorry to hear about the loss of our cousin Elise. Although we were not very close we kept in touch by phone & email, and I am truly grateful for that. My late parents z’l had a special relationship with Elise and spoke with her often. I’m sure they were there to greet her with a hug. She was a brave fighter and never gave up. Rest easy in Gan Eden, Elise. You will be dearly missed 💔
