To Mike and the Geldermann family, I am so sorry for your loss. I met Elyse at ASU as we both lived in the Ocotillo dorm. We shared many good laughs, and I will always remember her zest for life.

I just heard the news of Elyse's passing. I remember working with her back during our college summers at Gage Marine. With her beautiful blond hair and freckles, she was sweet and sunny; and always upbeat and fun. I am so sorry for your loss. She was taken too soon. My condolences to all of the Geldermann family.

To The Pesola & Geldermann Families, My wife and I send our deepest regrets over the passing of Elyse. I worked with her at Oakridge Cemetery from her arrival until my departure about nine years ago. I will always remember how she laughed and made me laugh. May God walk with you through every moment of grief. God Bless.

My sincerest condolences. My favorite story of Elyse was her telling me the story of her peanut butter rice crispy treats she manufactured for Niemen Marcus!!!! Classic on the quality control team! She was a great spirit and taken to young. God speed and love to all the family members.

Katie, There are times when we may not understand the plan of God. And this may be one of those times for you. It is at these times when we must trust what we know. That God is a loving and just God. That He is all knowing and knows what's best. Our challenge comes in being at peace with His decisions. I pray that the Holy Spirit fills you with His peace that surpasses all understanding. And over time you'll rest in the memories that He allowed you to make with your sister. God bless and keep you and your family strong. I'll be praying for you. Be at peace with God. Lisa (Kellam)
