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

I was out in Denver this week. This weekend it is about working around the house. It doesn't appear I need to travel this coming week.

I am back from Europe. My new passport is only two weeks old and I have added five Countries. I had Boobalan and Christopher pose with this tiny Fiat in Italy. It was their first trip ever outside of India. They made many new friends. There are some pics of a historically important bridge in Bassano del Grappa Italy. The bullet holes are still there.
