“Little did we know, the day that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn’t go alone, for part of us went with you the day God called you home”.

A funeral is not a Lifetime….. It is a lifetime in a Day.  It is with profound sadness that the management Eddie and Jackie Nelson and the support staff of Nelson’s Funeral Home announce the passing of Ms. Elaine Peters, 70, of Winnsboro, South Carolina. Ms. Peters departed this earthly life into eternity on Monday, August 7, 2023.

She attended the Public Schools of Fairfield County and after graduation she attended Allen University in Columbia, SC.   Elaine enjoyed spending time with her family and friends.  She worked with the Fairfield County School District, the Alfred Smith Daycare, and the Fairfield Board of Disability.   She later was self-employed and she worked until her health declined.
