We are sad to announce that on August 21, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Elaine Elizabeth Duncan Holcomb of Manchester, Connecticut. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Elaine Elizabeth Duncan Holcomb to show support.
In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Elaine had on those she encountered along her journey. Though Elaine may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, her essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.

She is survived by: her brother William Duncan of Feeding Hills, MA; her children, Heidi Holcomb Lyman of Manchester, CT, Linda Holcomb Mitchell of Andover, NH and Bruce Holcomb of Coventry, CT; and her granddaughter Shannon Elizabeth Lyman of New Boston, NH..
