Elaine Jeanne Janelle Sakelarios, beloved daughter, sister, mother, and friend, passed away peacefully on November 24, 2024 at the age of 72.
Born November 30, 1951, in Manchester, NH, Elaine was a beacon of love and warmth to all who knew her.
Elaine's journey through life was marked by her unwavering kindness, infectious laughter, creativity, and boundless generosity. She created a nurturing home filled with love, laughter, and warmth that often brought family and friends together.
Elaine pursued her passions and dreams with determination and grace. She was an avid teacher and master of all things fiber arts, such as knitting, crocheting, felting, spinning, and weaving, which earned her the respect and admiration of her colleagues.
She is survived by her husband Bill, son Joshua Lindberg, mother Odelva Geddes, and brother David, who will miss her dearly and forever carry her memory in their hearts.
Instead of flowers, the family requests donations to St. Jude's Children Hospital or Arizona Animal Rescue League.
Elaine will be remembered for her sparkling spirit, devotion to her family, and ability to make everyone feel special and loved. Although she is no longer with us, her light will continue to shine through the lives of those she
touched.
