What an amazing man! Saddened that he has passed along with so many of his peers. Happy that he is at peace with his wonderful wife, Elvera, and other family members. So many great memories of times with him and his family. Such a great sense of humor and so much fun to be around. He and my Dad would have such good times... Condolences to Pauline, Elaine, and Katherine. They don't make 'em like your Dad anymore! Love, The Handy/Sickels Family

Truly saddened to read about Tellis....he and Elvera were good friends of my parents and I have fond memories of them going back to my youth. Tellis was a highly esteemed leader in the California Date industry, a great neighbor, and a friend. He also made a big and lasting impact on our community through his strong leadership on CVWD.
Our sincerest condolences go out to the family.
