Christy, Carol, and Family
My heart and prayers are with you all. Elliot was always smiling from his heart, at living life and even pulling practical jokes on Robin, and others at Pasadena, and school. No words can ever express the life taken before its' time of youth. We can only pray reasons unknown to us, God pulled one of his angels home for a special purpose. When we reach our destination with Elliot, again we will see that smile he gave within his heart to welcome us home with him. Forever in our hearts and prayers.
Love and Peace,
Susan Strehl, Charlie and Mariah

It saddened me deeply to hear of Elliot's accident and passing. We used to go to Pasadena Community Church together in preschool, met again at St. Petersburg High, and he's come to stay at my place in Gainesville. I know he's in a much better place because of the person he was and the big heart he had. Elliot, you will be missed greatly by those both near and far. We've known each other for a long time, and we'll meet up once again some day. Your family has been in the thoughts and prayers of my own.

Elliot you are truly my friend. Remember the good times we had in the garage with everyone. There was so many fun times we had in there I can’t remember all of them but I can remember we always had fun .Remember our standing joke about starting the two stooges sports talk show , now who can I talk to about the college and pro football games like we use too . You might not be hanging with us physically but you will be with us in our hearts and souls. You got the best seat going for the gators games; don’t forget your friends, save us some good seats. Don’t forget your buddy your pal Bruno.
Love ya, David

Elliot will be truly missed. As a friend of my son David he use to come by the house often. He was always respectful and always welcome at our house I will remember his smile. While there are no words that will lessen your pain, know that his gift to others was a testament to his spirit and how you raise him. We will be thinking and praying for your family.

Dear Christy and Blake,
My heart felt sympathies go out to you and your entire family at this difficult time. It is difficult for us to understand why God calls some of His angels home sooner than others. He is safe in our loving Father's arms now and he will always be with you in your wonderful memories that you have of him. He was certainly a wonderful son, and friend to many and will be greatly missed by all.
Your friend from DS, keepmegoing

Dear Christy and Blake,
Although I never had the chance to meet your wonderful son, I can tell from reading all these entries what a wonderful person he was. Full of laughter and a good friend to many. Christy, I am "AllisonsMom" from DS and I just wanted to send you my sincere sympathy. Words are so inadequate...but please know your family are in my thoughts and prayers. How wonderful that even through this tragedy, others will live on because of your son's generosity thru organ donation. What a wonderful young man..the world will be a lesser place without him. I pray comfort and peace of mind for you as you go through this next part.
With deepest sympathy,
Donna Reinhart

I will miss you and think of you ALWAYS.

Elliot, Jay and I will miss you deeply. Taking you to NYC was great, I hoped to show you the best in food, you enjoyed the pizza the best. My best memory was on the flight to Manhatten spililling soda on yourself twenty minutes into the flight! I always enjoyed you at the house in the pool, you loved my food creations. You loved bacon (which I agree) with burgers and such. I will always remember, God Speed to Heaven Son, Jerry To Christy and Blake, I have no words to say other than my heart feels so much for you, I am a parent. Jay will represent my feelings Thursday, I cannot get out of work, I know Elliot would understand. Jerry and Jay Szkoruda

Elliot,
There are no words to describe how much you'll be missed. I know that you wouldn't want anyone to be sad about this, but it's hard not to. You were an awesome person. I only have great memories of you that make me smile and laugh. Although we all have memories, you have provided other families with a greater future. Even after life, your kindness will still live on. I love you and miss you, Elliot.
