Although Elsie went to Newfoundland with her family when she was a young girl, her heart remained in the Highlands for the rest of her life. Elsie was born in Scotland, but she spent the majority of her childhood abroad. She travelled back to Scotland on multiple occasions with members of her family and proudly displayed the Scottish flag on her front porch. She was extremely proud of her background. The job of being a loving and devoted mother to her four children will be the one for which she will be remembered the most. She was a former teacher, a group home counsellor, and a student assistant. However, her most important function was that of a mother. Elsie was a superb host; she was the first to turn the kettle on to make a cup of tea for each and everyone who came to visit, and she delighted in the company of acquaintances and family members who came to visit and have a conversation. She had a deep appreciation for British television, and she would watch shows like “Escape to the Country,” “Ballykissangel,” and “Doc Martin” with great pleasure while sipping her favourite cup of tea. She was a major lover of British television.
