So sorry to hear about Karl ! I always liked him. Karl was my brother
Greg's (R.I.P.) age. I was a year younger than Erick. We lived right behind
the Lubich's/Peck's home since I was born. I have lots of fond memories playing baseball , Football at Quito school , Going to Family market and
getting Icee's and junk food. Or spending a Saturday afternoon at Meridian quad and catching 3 or 4 matinees for $2 bucks ! All the best
to Mrs. Lubich/Peck , Jim , Rob , Erick , Lisa , Louise and Karl's loved ones
from The Elliott Family ! God Bless ! Hope your all doing well , Allen
