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
We are planning a memorial service and internment for my Mom in Rochester on Sept 12th. Otherwise it is Friday again and we are doing our normal food truck Friday dinner in Duluth, "Cuchina Machina" or "кухонная машина" in Russian. We plan on flying this weekend, working on projects. I am planning a "round the world trip" for work.
