Elliot,
I will never forget the good times we had in high school driving around Manchester in your 67 Pea Green Plymouth Road Runner.

Uncle Elliott...
I wish I had a time machine... sometimes, I regret moving from CT., but... I had to find my path.

You are Forever in my memories..
I've always looked up to you, working with you and my Dad was the best feeling as a young girl... I was so proud.. still am. It takes a talented, detailed and focused individual to be a successful engineer..
Whenever I see Classic Corvettes- I think of you..
I hope your at peace.. and.. your with your loved ones.. if you see my Mom, Grammy and Uncle Richie, please tell them I miss them... more and more everyday.. time isn't fair.

My dear sweet brother and surroget father Elliott,
I will miss you so deeply but at least Steve and I have the wonderful smile on your face to remember the day we brought you that 40' LCD TV and the Blue Ray player. I haven't seen you that happy since you got your first job at Esso in Vernon in 1965! We suffered together Through mom,s sickness. I know her death was ahard blow to you as it was to me when she died in my arms. But we always stayed together as family like mama taught us. You always liked to talk to Steve and myself about work and Gradys and we always found the right gift for you. Steve and I were saddened but more than glad to be with you for the 3 hours until the coronor came. I held you and kissed you, because you were my brother Elliott, Steve, John and I love you very much and I will honor your wishes, you will be burried with mom and Richard.
