I'm so sorry to hear this! My condolences and warm wishes to Elliot Carter's family, friends and fans. He managed to ride the cutting edge well past the age of 100(The serious but fun opera, What Next?). It seems to me that he felt like composition was less work than breathing- if Andy Carvin's interview from the 80's is any indication:

What is your secret to such vitality at 100+ ?! God Bless.
