Elaine worked for 30 plus years at Cambria Hardware as a cashier and data entry person. She did a great job raising her 3 children. In her 30’s she caught the bug of riding motorcycles. She belonged to the Johnstown Touring Club and Women on Wheels, and she earned the name “Bag Lady”. She rode through 35 states, Canada, and Nova Scotia. When her riding got a little less, she found another hobby at her son Chris’ cabin. She rode the tractor cutting grass, planted flowers, painted, and just enjoyed the outdoors.
