family forever

Rest in Peace Uncle Elroy. My dad always bragged about how Porter men were men of gold. I always rolled my eyes as a kid, but come to find out how true that really is. You are missed.

Mr. Porter was a kind, funny and loving man. He will be missed.

My mother
Madeline tine is very sad
Elroy is her cousin and she is also a member of the greatest generation

Always smiling. We miss you.

My dad, my hero. Sleep softly in peace and know that you are loved forever.

Uncle Elroy! First and last of the Porter siblings! We will miss your cheer and kindness. Peace be with you!

I asked uncle Elroy what his secret was, he said it was that he says "good morning" to the east every day when he rises. I then asked if that is why he always has a smile on his face. Without hesitation, he humbly admitted, "Elsie left that there." We will all miss that romantic smile.

Our deepest condolences and love to Aunt Elsie and the family. Uncle Roy had a quiet way of always making us feel loved and welcome and we will miss him very much. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
