Elissa Amerson of Atlanta, Ga passed away on Monday, July 12, 2021, after a battle of cancer at the age of 75 years old.
Elissa was born on August 18, 1945, in Wilmington, NC.
She graduated from Grady High School and attended Georgia State. She went on to start her own business, Quik-Tape Inc, where she later retired after 30+ years. She spent her early years living in Dunwoody, then eventually moved up to Lake Lanier to truly enjoy the rest of her days on the lake with all of her family and friends. Elissa was a devoted and loving wife and had 2 children.
Elissa was best known for her humble, gentle spirit and her strong faith. She was our rock; she was an exceptional mother, grandmother, wife, aunt, and friend. She had a gift of sensing the needs of others and an ability to provide unconditional love, support, and encouragement. She was kind with her words and gracious with her time and loved nothing more than spending time with her family and friends being at the lake cooking out, boating, traveling, playing games, watching movies, eating out, shopping, and talking.
The family was everything to her, especially her precious grandchildren; Sarah, Brooke, Haley, and Kayla.
Elissa is survived by her 2 children; Jeff Lafkowitz and Laurie Stanley, her husband, Bud Amerson, her stepdaughter, Martie Warren, her sister, Wendy Saul, and her grandchildren, Sarah and Brooke Stanley, Haley Warren, and Kayla Boshers, her nieces and nephews Jodi, Zoie, Talya, and Yared Wittenberg, and Cary Purcell.
