He was my cousin. He’ll be missed.
Paula & Jeff and families,
We are so sorry to hear about Uncle Elmer, he was such a caring & giving man, so good to Uncle Mike and Aunt Sue and always had time for his family. He never came up North to visit without coming to Boyne City to check in on us. Our last visit was so much fun, did a lot of reminiscing & a whole lot of laughing. He was very special, please know you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Bill & Lynda
Oh my Fudley! Absolutely love you to pieces! Thank you so much for all the laughs, love, memories and for training me to be your replacement! Mostly, thanks for always giving Jack crap and keeping him in line! I will NEVER forget the trip to the Indy 500 and that darn tootsie roll after you brake checked me! I know Evan was waiting for you. You two try to behave. Thank you for being the awesome person you were. Will always love ya my Fudley! Heidi VanVaerenbergh
To me Elmer was a second father at times. He was never short on advice meant to keep Jeff and I in line and out of trouble. This worked ... some times 😁. Best of all he gave Jeff a hard time first ....most of the time.
He will be missed but his advise lives on.

I will so miss Uncle Elmer. Such a kind and thoughtful man. Always there for my Dad and Aunt Susie when they needed him, took such good care of them. Always kissed my cheek when ever we saw each other. I will deeply miss you. My prayers are with Paula, Jeff, and the precious grand and great grandchildren.
Dear Cousins: It is my great sadness that another uncle has left us. My mind goes back to when I was a young kid and I watched Uncle Elmer run at the Thunderbird Race Way. What a thrill it was to watch him ram bumpers with other cars during a race. I want to remember him that way, full of life and energy, and I hope that takes you back to a fond memory, too. We will visit later this summer and pay our respects at the cemetery. With deep sympathy, Kandy and Matt
