Minnie lived in this area most of her life. She was a seamstress for several fur companies before retiring. She was a member of Gregory Church of Christ and TOPS. She is survived by her daughters, Doris and Mary, two grandchildren, and four great grandchildren.
Minnie lived across the street from my grandmother, and whenever I'd visit grandma, I made sure I visited Minnie. Her home always smelled like mothballs, but it was beautiful. We used to have real old-fashioned tea parties. The kind where you boiled the water and had the tea leaves in the little metal strainer, with cream and sugar. She always had some type of cookie or candy for us. If the weather was nice we'd take the tea service out on the patio. Whether you intended to or not, you always acted like a proper young lady. I regret growing older and not spending as much time with her as I should have. I really miss her.
** I'm finding a lot of conflicting info on her. Some said Elliot is her Maiden name and others said Pacific, but the headstone says her middle name starts with an E.
