On Tuesday, April 26, 2016 God chose to call home one of his faithful and loyal servants, Elvin Gloria Harris and now she rests peacefully in his arms. She was known for warm smile and outgoing personality. Elvin had a special way of loving and caring for her loved ones. Elvin was born on November 7, 1926 to Ivanhoe Jenkins and Coral B. Jenkins.
