Elva Kohler Kinkade

Elva was active with the Bellevue Community Church for many years & taught Sunday School as well as AWANA's. She also participated with the Blaine County 4-H where her groups took home many ribbons year after year.
Elva retired from the Blaine County School District in 2005. She enjoyed spending time at the senior center and making crafts for her grandkids, nieces, and nephews.
In 2010 she moved to Washington State to be closer to her daughter and grandchildren. She enjoyed going to Mariner's games, picnicking up on Mt. Rainier, helping her grandson raise chickens and ducks, going to casino's & of course spending time with family.
