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. His 50% was telling me. My 50% was doing it. He was a fixture at my church and involved me in all sorts of things. Including organization of our "Civic Breakfast" where we invited leaders from the community for information and opinions of the community. It goes on and on. There were 260 people attending his funeral. He will be missed. https://www.crowellbrothers.com/obituaries/Elliott-Earl-Brack?obId=48440319

It was a good week. They are all good, even if I don't think so. Stay with the program! My Aunt was in town for a day. Buddy the goose has been missing. We were getting to enjoy his sassy attitude around the house. The back up camera in the leaf came in handy so I didn't run him over. I started calling the camera "The Buddy Cam". More than once I caught him flapping his wings warning me not to leave as I backed out the driveway. I am working on my IFR rating. It is requiring more focus that I originally thought it would. It will be worthwhile. Getting a pilots license is a really good thing to do, getting additional ratings is quite a natural thing to do. Being a licensed pilot is a reasonably small club worldwide. It is always fun to meet other pilots and talk planes.
