Elaine passed away in Victoria on November 1, 2016 in the presence of her family members and friends. Elaine was the only sister of her brother Jack Moore and was a longtime resident of the City. She is survived by her brother and the members of his family in BC and Alberta and was predeceased by her step-daughter Linda Jones of Klamath Falls, Oregon and her nephew James Moore of Victoria, BC.
Throughout her lifetime, Elaine was a world traveler and enjoyed many trips throughout the Americas, Asia and Europe. She spent many years enthusiastically promoting the beauty of BC in the countries she visited and in arranging tours for the groups wishing to share in the wonderful Province in which she was privileged to live.
On retirement, she divided her winters between the desert communities of California and Arizona and the summers walking Victoria and Oak Bay Beach Drive waterfronts and in conversing with tourists arriving by cruise ship at Ogden Point.
Elaine was an accomplished artist and exhibited many of her oil paintings locally and in Palm Springs. She particularly enjoyed and appreciated the care and friendships developed during her residency at Carlton House in recent years.
No formal service is planned at this time, but as Elaine requested her ashes will be scattered in the waters she selected along the shores of the pathway she visited daily during her lifetime.
