Obituary for ELFNER


Published in the Albuquerque Journal on Thursday June 26, 2014

ELFNER, GERTI Gerti Elfner, born May 29, 1924, in Pforzheim, Germany, left this world on June 19, 2014, in Tucson, AZ. Survived by son Eric in Seattle, son Axel and daughter-in-law Leslie in Tucson. Dedicated wife & mother, she survived the world's worst and appreciated the world's best. Good, smart, strong, decent, honest. She came to America in 1955 with nothing, ran a successful automotive repair shop with husband, Hermann, and made a good life for her family in Albuquerque, NM. She was loved, and she will be missed. Rest in peace, mom - you did well, and you've given enough.
