With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Elisa Carrie Stevens (née Taub), who left this world peacefully on April 23rd, 2025, after a courageous battle with cancer, surrounded by the love she cultivated throughout her life. Elisa faced her illness with remarkable strength and grace, ultimately passing on her own terms.
Elisa's life was a vibrant tapestry woven with creativity, connection, and joy. A devoted wife to Joshua and a cherished mother to Chloe and Jonah, her love formed the cornerstone of their family. She is also deeply missed by her sister Shelley (Michael Lack), brothers Brian (Debbie) and Mark (Linda), and her husband's brother Aaron (Jennifer Stevens).
Her warmth extended to her many nieces and nephews – Andrew & Elana, Jordan & Laurel, Charles, Arin & Josh, Maxine, Hannah, Caleb, Ellie, & Jacob – and great-nieces and nephews – Rae, Reese, Joey & Leo – who will forever remember her playful spirit and loving presence. Elisa was the beloved daughter of the late Anne and Harvey Taub, and a respected daughter-in-law of the late Sharyn Spitzer & Dennis Spitzer, and Michael & Judy Stevens.
Elisa embraced life with enthusiasm. Her hands were rarely still, finding joy in the intricate details of arts and crafts. She possessed a gift for bringing order and fun to gatherings, whether organizing lively Mah Jongg games or sharing her passion for Broadway shows and movies. Travel broadened her horizons and created cherished memories, but it was time spent with family that truly filled her heart.
Elisa's love leaves an indelible mark on all who knew her. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered for her kindness, her creativity, and the unwavering love she shared.
A funeral service and burial will be held on Friday, April 25th at 1:30 PM at Neveh Zedek Cemetery, located at 7925 SW Canyon Lane, Portland, Oregon, 97225.
