Elsie was born on June 2nd, 1932, in Chicago, Illinois to parents Alvin and Martha (Ogez) Kuhfuss.

On June 20, 1953, she was united in marriage to John “Jay” Domkowski. Together, they adopted 3 children: John, James and Jacalyn.

The couple lived in Chicago for several years, moved to Delavan, WI, and then settled in Antioch, IL. After retirement, they moved to Las Vegas and Racine WI. Together, they owned and operated JADPRO; a tool and manufacturing company in Grayslake, Illinois.
