E.L. Was a great mentor, friend and all around person. He had a way with of transferring warmth and laughter to those he met but if you was around him much he would provide a blank slate for you to express no matter what he had to do then be the first to cheer at your accomplishments. I can't help but think of the Greener Pastures he has been granted and I send a prayer for there to be a couple cattle there. I am so sorry for the families loss but take pride in how much he was loved and respected E.L. REST IN PEACE and thank you for all the lessons
Jon, Toni, Logan and Lexi we are sorry for your loss and pray for comfort and healing for all your family.
