Vale Elaine Moffat

It is with much sadness that we announce the passing of Elaine Moffat, Life member of SI Kapiti Coast, Aotearoa New Zealand, and a dedicated Soroptimist for more than 40 years.

Throughout her distinguished Soroptimist journey, Elaine held many positions at Club, Region and Federation levels, including serving as SISEAP President from 2002–2004.

Elaine made a significant contribution to Soroptimism, and her dedication and service will not be forgotten. May she rest in peace.

We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends and fellow Soroptimists.
