Not sure what to say?

He was a very sweet man. Always enjoyed talking with him when he came to our dental office. He will be greatly missed. Praying for the family during this time of grief . May God give you comfort and peace. God Bless,

Great Man. Proud to have known him.

I don't think that there is anyone that could have met and known Elmer that could not have loved him. Every memory that I have of him is one of an incredibly sweet, kind, generous, engaging, loving soul that I delighted in seeing. He absolutely made this world a better place, and he will be so greatly missed! With much love, Treasa

Elmer was President of the Ivy Chase Homeowners Association in Hoover and I was fortunate to serve as Treasurer during his tenure. He led with a gentle but decisive hand.

We always enjoyed time with Elmer. He was a wonderful man. We know he will be truly missed. Pam & Jerry

Offering condolences to the family. May God's loving kindness sustain you through this difficult time.

May you find peace from the God of all comfort and gain strength to cope from that peace of God that surpasses all understanding.
