Elliott Brack

I went to Elliot Brack's funeral yesterday. He was a friend. And he was quite a character. He was one of the first people I met outside of work when I moved to Georgia. He was sort of a variation of the main character of Tom Wolfe's "A Man In Full". I used to say that Elliott and I had a 50-50 relationship. He told me what to do and I did it -50-50. He was a fixture at my church and involved me in all sorts of things. Including the organization of our "Civic Breakfast" where we invited leaders from the community for information and opinions of community. It goes on and on. He will be missed. https://www.crowellbrothers.com/obituaries/Elliott-Earl-Brack?obId=48440319

I am back from Brazil again. Although my capabilities have grown with Portuguese it is a great incentive to study. This trip we had 3 or 4 stops in the State of Sao Paulo. Always educational and a learning experience. There is a pic of a 1970 vintage sugarcane cutter. Angie was in NY this week.
