On March 5, 2021, Elly Peterson Drosihn, formerly of Little Rock, Ark., and the Bay area of San Francisco, joined her husband Joe in death after a brief illness. She was 79.

She and Joe were accomplished architects, creating beautiful homes and gardens along the Pacific Coast. Elly's love of California extended to all she knew, embracing life with humor, generosity and kindness.

Whether sailing, skiing or flying, she and Joe shared memorable events with their extended family and friends. She was the loving mother of two sons and five grandchildren.

We will always cherish our time with our beloved Elly and her wonderful Joe. Arrangements are under the direction of RuebelFuneralHome.com
