I am very sorry for your loss. I met Ellard when he came to my daughter's rescue when her precious dog died. He was so kind and a wonderful man. May God bless you as you hold your precious memories close.

My most sincere condolences to the family & close friends. This very kind man made some of the saddest days of my life, better. A total stranger at one point jn 2013 who just made it his business to be kind & a smiling face on days when it felt like my whole world was falling apart he really ended up feeling like a friend over the years. I had been looking for him to come walking thru Belmont, as he would always stop & talk, saying I should let my kids ride their bikes on the trail to cool water . I’ll be sure to do that, friend. My heart is truly broken with this news. A great man indeed.

Ellard was a good man and a good friend, and he is gone much too early. He was quick with a laugh and a good thought, and we have a lot of great memories of soccer games and mischief from the Jones, Albright and Carneal kids! Our hearts and prayers go to all the family, and we wish you peace.
