She was born to Stanley & Stella Murray on May 29, 1941. She has two younger sisters, Linda & Gerri, with whom she adored & enjoyed spending time. Growing up, her mother taught her to sew & crochet; she enjoyed both well into adulthood. After graduating from Kensington High School for Girls in January 1959, she started working at Girard Bank. Shortly after, she met the love of her life, Wayne, at a Friday night dance. Together they had four children, Lisa-Jo Woods-Kriss (Mark), Douglas Woods (Nicole), Tracie Libby (the late Scott), and Gail Hair (Timothy).

Elaine also loved the beach, going shopping, dining out, going to the movies, listening to music & traveling. Her favorite place she traveled to was Poland with her sisters & many cousins. She always said “That was the trip of a lifetime!”
