Elaine Virginia Martin

Elaine Virginia Martin, age 67, of Mentor, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on June 24, 2021. Elaine was born in Massachusetts to Arthur and Phyllis Rand. She was a loving wife of 43 years (48 years together) to Reed Martin III; devoted mother of Reed (Stephanie) Martin IV, and Robyn (Adam) Rupp; cherished grandmother of Pierson, Lennon and Arlow Rupp; dear sister of Robert Rand and Bethany Blake, loving sister-in-law of Denise Martin and Debbie Barnick, and dear friend of Marie Kovacich.

She worked for 33 years at Great Lakes Power Products where she retired as Vice President in 2019. Elaine enjoyed vacationing with her family, reading, walking at Holden Arboretum, puzzles, collecting seashells, crocheting, and swimming in her pool. Her greatest blessings in life were her grandchildren.  A private celebration of life will be held at a later date.
