It is with heavy hearts we are announcing the passing of Elaine Jo Hanna Truscott, born October 26, 1936 in Teulon, Manitoba.

After a long and courageous battle with cancer, Elaine passed away peacefully in hospital in Creston.

Elaine was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. She will be sorely missed by her husband Chuck; her sister Lucille; brothers Gerald (Barb) and Bruce (Helen); her children and their families Kevin (Marian), Grant (Heather), Linda (Darrell), Dale (Christine), as well as her grandchildren and great-grandchild.

Elaine was predeceased by her parents Ronald and Mary Korstrom and sister Shirley Korstrom.

Thank you to all the home care support staff and the volunteers at the Red Cross health equipment loan program and the hospice nursing staff for all of their caring and compassionate support.


A special thanks to Dr Le Roux who is the kind of doctor everyone wishes they had. He is a warm caring man who cares for both your physical and spiritual health and is a source of strength to his patients. Elaine thought you were truly amazing and appreciated all you did for her.

A Funeral Service was held at Erickson Covenant Church on August 27, 2016. Interment at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Erickson, BC.
