Uncle Bub was a great man and a very special uncle! I will always remember his laugh and love for his family. The most special thing I will remember is his ability to make you feel important. He would look you in the eyes and ask you about your life. I always knew he truly cared and would listen intently! My dad used to say, "if I'm not around, go to Bub." We kids growing up had two wonderful role models of hardworking, loving, fun, dads! Our thoughts and prayers are with Aunt Helen and all of the Elliott's!
Love you all!

Dear Elliott Family: I was so sorry to hear of Harry's passing. I always liked seeing him at mass & reminding him of his wonderful granddaughter, Elizabeth who was born close to my own daughter, Megan. He always had a smile for everyone he came in contact with. He will be missed
