Dear Elliott and Connie and families...I am so sad to hear of your father's/grandfather's passing. I remember him with fond memories... Gordon and I were pleased to have your parents look us up when they were in Hamilton, Ontario way back in 1969...we enjoyed a lovely dinner together...I also remember several road trips we took with your family...Dad tells me we borrowed you tent when I was 4 years old to try out the camping experience...I remember that because it was my birthday during that vacation...I remember skinned knees and lots of running around for us when we were together, but your Mom was always calm...she never got excited, and was always ready with a hug. Your dad was a quiet man, but you knew he meant what he said and was there with a hug when you needed one.
I will always remember them with love and appreciation for what they have given to me in my childhood.
I will pray for your peace of heart and send my love and good wishes.

My deepest sympathy to Connie, Barry, Chris, Jon and Craig and Elliot. I will always remember your Dad as a quiet man with a wonderful laugh and good sence of humor. I can still see him selecting rocks and building walls in the yard. They were a true work of art. We were all fortunate to have grown up in the Floral St neighborhood with so many good parents looking out for all of us!

As one of the "Floral Street" kids, it is with sadness that the last of the "Floral Street" parents is gone. Elliott was one of the better reasons to have grown up where we did. To Connie & Elliott Jr, my thoughts are with you.

Elliott was a valuable coworker and good friend at Paul Revere during the 25 years I knew him there. An honorable, effective worker, he was always fair to the company and to the policyholders that he dealt with. A quiet, loyal person who got the job done.
