If he had just met you before parting, a new friendship had developed. Elmer was a people person and would go to the casino in Burlington and Riverside where he would visit with old and new friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Ernest and Helen; wife, Margaret; son, Mike; two sisters, Frances IRELAND and Margaret "Joan" TEDROW; and brother, Bernard TEETER.
