Zach Bolton left a message on October 12, 2022:
In 2002 my grandmother moved into a retirement community and sent out Christmas cards to her neighbors that December. She received a card back from Mr. Elbert thanking her. To this day she speaks on that card and the genuine kindness and thankfulness it contained. I remember, as a child, admiring him for his soft spoken voice and the warm energy he exuded. Last Thanksgiving I brought Mr. Elbert a plate, and he opened the door to his apartment where he sat all alone on a holiday that most spend surrounded by loved ones. He greeted me with a momentary look of surprise to which he followed with a warm smile and thanked me multiple times within our short conversation. I am sad to say that I didn't know Mr. Elbert as more than just my grandmother's neighbor, yet I find myself crying today after hearing that he passed away last month. Rest Easy sir ?
