Elmer went no where without his beloved dogs, Moo and Luna, Dick the cat stayed at home. He loved camping and four wheeling at Woodland Lake with his family, the bigger the bonfire the better! Collecting antiques was a favorite hobby, Old beer cans, old bicycles and tricycles to fix up for the kids, coins and Hotwheels, which he keep in the original package, just to name a few. Most of all he liked hanging out with friends and family, especially his grand-babies. Every year he would take them for a ride on the tractor yelling, “All aboard”

These were the joys of his simple, loving life. He will be missed.

In the words of Elmer, “Uh…I don’t know”
