My shooting mentor and dear friend! I think of him every time I head to range and have taught many how to shoot a pistol based on what he taught me. He was a gentleman of the first degree. Rest In Peace my dear friend!

I have so many good memories of Jack and this reminder of his death brings them flooding back. Our friendship was based on our shared interest of shooting and to this day every time I pick up a pistol I think of Jack and what he taught me about pistol shooting. He was a dear, dear friend and I miss him so very much. Rest In Peace my friend...you earned it!! Sincerely, Dave Johnson

Uncle Jack,
You have touched my life more than you will ever know. The best advice you ever gave me was to live your life like you want to live it and live it to the fullest. You have been a great uncle and a great friend. I will miss you. Thanks for the great memories that will make me laugh a lifetime.
From Your Kansas City Cutie,
Jan

Jack is gone, but his kindness to others and his willingness to share his knowledge of the shooting sports will never be forgotten. I had the pleasure of being his shooting companion for the last year of his life and it was an experience I'll never forget. A real gentleman has left us. Rest in peace my friend. You're sorely missed already.

Good bye Mr. Elliott. I want to thank
you for teaching me what real soldiers are all about. Your lesson to me helped me to love my country even more than I have, and to honor
those men who like yourself who made freedom possible. God Bless You and yours.
