On behalf of the residents and staff of The Village at Incarnate Word, I offer our sincere sympathy to Esther and to Elroy's children. Elroy was an active member of our community while he and Esther lived here and we were sorry that his health issues caused them to leave us. And now he is in the presence of God, whom he loved and served, and forever in your hearts. May that same God give each of you strength to bear this loss and courage as you face each new day.

Ken and Barbara Hector mourn your loss. We extend our heartfelt sympathy to Elroy's "beloved" wife Esther, his daughters, and the rest of his family. Elroy's vast knowledge and skills never ceased to amaze us. May God's Perpetual Light shine upon him.
