She arrived in Long Beach, California, on December 24, 1973, along with her family. She was a loving wife, sister, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Over her 104 years of life, she was also a light in the world to many extended family members including her in-laws, nieces and nephews, cousins, and family friends.

Elina was devoted, humble, warm, honest, dependable, and welcoming. She opened up her home to everyone, and it was a place full of love, laughter, family, friends, and food. It was a place where no one left hungry, as one of the ways she showed her love was through her cooking. Though she will be deeply missed, she will continue to live on in the loving memories of her family and friends.
