Elsa Quirino Ballesteros
 

Life is a journey of sweetness and sorrow

Of yesterday’s memories and hopes for tomorrow

Of pathways we choose and detours we face

With patience and humor, courage and grace,

Of joys that we’ve shared and of people we’ve met

Who have touched us in ways we will never forget

Friends who met in the early ‘70s and formed the singing group, “Sundaze”, and for many years, was the regular Sunday choir for the 7:00pm mass at Our Lady of Lourdes Church in downtown Toronto, ON.  Elsa was the soloist of this choir and also, that church was the place where we first met.  Their camaraderie was instant, lasting, and steadfast since they shared common interests, their love for singing and music, and the joy of each others company.  Over the years, people came and went but for those whose friendship remained, stayed to last a lifetime!
