Lynn, We hold you and your family in our prayers. Elmer will be remembered for his kindness which he gave with a wonderful smile. He enlisted me in the K of C and mentored me. A week before he died, we treasured playing cards with you both in Fla.
Sharon 2 really liked him.

My deepest sympathy to you Lynn and your family. Although I didn't know you personally, but have only seen you around the park, my prayers for comfort in your time of sorrow. Joyce De Feyter (rent F-21) in Reflections.
On behalf of the Knights of Columbus Our Lady of Grace Council # 14717 & Our Lady Queen of The Universe Assembly # 3203, Avon Park, FL. Our Prayers go out to your family. S.K. Eric Quiel Faithful Navigator.
We miss our get togethers up at the cottage in Gladwin, the game nights and having a few Brewskis together. Our Knights of Columbus has not been the same since you left for Florida.
We know that when our turn comes, that the first thing greeting us will be Elmers laugh long before we reach the pearly gates. We will see you then our good friend. Until then rest peacefully.
Love,
Denis & Patti McCarthy

Our deepest sympathy goes to Lynn and the boys. Elmer was a good-hearted person who was always there when we needed him. He was a good friend to talk to and always made us laugh. We enjoyed playing cards and assorted games with him. He orchestrated changing the Knights of Columbus tootsie roll vests to read a less threatening saying of "Help Mentally Impaired Citizens" which our autistic son was very grateful for. We will miss a good friend and "family" member in Elmer. God Bless him and keep him close and God bless Lynn and the boys. Our love goes out to all of you. Gerrit, Joni & Daryl Otten
I never had a chance to get to know you but I put up your mail for 9 years, So sorry for your loss. Judy and Tom A 1
We will miss our friend Elmer who we played a lot of cards with on a regular basis. Especially missed will be his expression of "I ain't got no stinkin' (hearts, spades, clubs, or diamonds)" forcing him to add a card to his hand. His laugh is well remembered by us as we have known him and Lynn for a number of years. Our prayers and condolences are extended to Lynn and the family.

Hi, I am Martha Naomi (Crouch) Fitzer's daughter. We wanted to let you know that our hearts are with you during this difficult time. Much of the family hasn't known how to contact you all so I went on the hunt and found this page. I don't recall Elmer Jr. as I was very young when we went to the last family reunion , but Mom does. We are very sad for your loss and hope that time eases the pain of your loss. Love, Kathy
