Elaine Porteous of Olathe, Kansas went to be with her Lord and Savior in her eternal home surrounded by family at Overland Park Regional Hospital after a hard-fought battle with pneumonia. She was a Topeka native for over 77 years until moving to the Overland Park area to be near her children. She was a member of the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority and continued to be an active alum volunteering her time as an advisor for many years.
Elaine was a fiercely devoted mother making many sacrifices to ensure their well-being. She loved her grandchildren too - always wanting to know every detail of what was occurring in their lives.
Prior to losing her eyesight, she was an avid reader, club bridge player and excellent cook. Probably her biggest gift, however, was that of conversationalist. She loved to visit with her family, friends, neighbors and co-workers. She knew a lot about so many topics: sports, politics, faith etc. Memorial services will be held on Friday, December 20 at St.
