Elva Creppon went to be with the Lord on Saturday, February 20, 2021. Born March 13, 1940 in Galveston, TX. She grew up in League City, TX. and lived in Santa Fe, TX. for over 55 years.
As a child she grew up on a dairy farm. She was a very hard working woman who could build any fence, work cows, haul hay, milk cows, and out ride her brothers on a bareback horse. She worked many years as a meat wrapper at League City Locker Co. and Doreck's Packing Co.
Elva was the rock that held the family together. Everyone would gather at her house for all the holidays and birthdays. She loved her animal collection from rabbits to goats to horses and baby calves that she bottle fed. Elva and J.L. were always involved with their children as 4H Leaders and FFA parents. She cherished all of her children and their families. Elva will be missed by all.
