Yvonne has meant so much to me personally and professionally. I am so sad to hear of the loss of your husband Elliott. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your children and all of your extended family at this very difficult time.

I was a classmate of Elliot's. I was not in the core group of his friends, but we were in so many classes together that Elliot helped make Jordan and Paly a more fun place for me.

Elliott: Frances & Ed's elder son was a part of our collective family memories....of fun, after-school snacks, visits, projects, water balloons, and filming in the Christiansen's long driveway. His life was too short, but it had a depth & value to it that we will all remember & respect. May he rest in peace. the Christiansen familyy

How do you sum up a childhood friendship in a few sentences? You can't. Elliott I love that you were part of The Herd and therefore one of my big brothers; I love that you would be nice to me when my brother was mean (in the words of my younger days!!); I love thinking of all you guys launching water balloons to the park from your house; I love chuckling about how you harbored my bro when I had chicken pox, then he got them later but worse; I love remembering your rich laugh; I love as adults we stayed friends and I love knowing the depths your devotion and love for your family from your holiday cards. So many will miss you, deeply.

Elliott was one of my best friends when he lived in the Midtown area. I was just thinking about him on Sunday and thought I should look him up on Facebook. We used to catch baby toads in the creek with Andy Butler for my father to release in the garden. Elliott's family moved to another section of town and my mom would take me to play and birthday parties. Have nothing but fond memories of him. My love and prayers to the family and hugs and kiss to Frances.
