MARK ELLIOTT
Mark passed away on Easter Sunday, April 21, 2019, at 11:30pm at home. He had been in the hospital and returned on Good Friday, April 19th. He was initiated into TRI-V in 1988. His involvement in TRI-V was a regular bowler (average in the 180s) and golfing in the league (a low handicapper). Mark always had a smile on his face and had the one liner jokes that kept us laughing. He enjoyed joining us in February when the group went to Florida for a winter break and playing golf for five days. After his father passed away he was the escort with his Mom for pinochle and other TRI-V events. Mark had been confined to a wheel chair and oxygen for years and pretty much confined to home. He was embarrassed about his health condition and spent very little time out of his home. When he arrived at home on Friday he was so exhausted that his sister, Sandy who he lived with, had to call 911 to have the paramedics get him in the house and to his recliner. He spent most of the next two days asleep and his pain finally came to an end on Easter Sunday. I talked to Mark before he went into the hospital and the last thing he said to me was “I regret not being more active in TRI-V.”
