On September 4, 1949, Elaine married Lloyd W. Buchholz in Crandon. To this union, two children were born. Elaine and Lloyd resided and raised their children on a farm near Hitchcock until 1971, when they moved to Redfield.

She especially loved her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She enjoyed playing cards, games, golf, and quilting.
