Another feature of Elena's

Choice is the wide selection of greeting cards, which are always marked

at 50 percent off. With new lines arriving weekly, Elena also offers merchandise

for every special occasion, and with Valentine's Day right around

the corner, her gift shop will be brimming with the perfect gifts for

every sweetheart.

In addition to running the

newly opened gift shop, Elena is employed full time by the United States

Postal Service in Tyrone. "I enjoy getting to know so many of the

people on my route," Elena says. She also looks forward to all the

customers who come in her shop, both new customers and regulars.

"All our clients are very

special to us," Elena says. "There are many who know and love

the selection, quality and prices we have to offer. New customers are

always made to feel very welcome, and we love to help them find the perfect

gift from our selection."

Elena Durapau has come a long

way from the raft she clung to on her way to the United States from Cuba.

She hopes that through her

story, she can be an example to others that those who persevere will be

successful. Elena and her husband Norman have a seven year old son.
