 Born in Valle Hermoso, Mexico, on July 29, 1942, she was the daughter of Paulino Landa and Aurelia Landa.

Her love for cleanliness was evident as everything had to be spick and span in her world. Her passion for travel took her far and wide. Among Elia's passions were tending to her beautiful flower garden and caring for animals.

May she rest in peace knowing that she made a significant impact on all who were fortunate enough to have known her.
