“You are Remembered”
Peace and condolence, to the family and friends. “He which hath no stomach, to this fight, let him depart. But we in it, shall be remembered. We few, we happy few, we band of brothers!! For he today, that sheds his blood with me, shall always be my brother.” Rest in peace brave soldier, you have not been forgotten. (W.Shakespeare) May God Bless you, for your Sacrifice!!!

Robert Elliott was, a very close friend, of my family and we have missed him. All four, of my children were with him, alot, as he was a very kind person. He treated them, like his brother and sister. Bob was, such a smart boy and allways, had a dream about being, a helicopter pilot and he got his wish, only to be killed, just before coming home. We have all, missed him. THE SEAL FAMILY. Here is a Memoriam, written by his best friend, Kent Crisler. "In memory of Robert Elliott." It's been a year, since the shocking news. Came, to the little town, of Perth. When the army men, came and told them. That Bob, had been taken, from this earth. It was so hard, for us, to understand. Why Bob had, to be taken this way. But we know, many boys in Vietnam, faced this tragedy, every day. Bob came, to Perth to live, with his uncle and aunt, when he was just a little boy. They loved and cared for him, through the years. He brought them, happiness and joy. While growing up, Bob had, a special friend. They were together, where ever, they went. These two, little boys, grew up so fast. His friends name, was Kent. The time soon came, when they went to grade school, then they both went to Wellington, High. After graduation, they joined, the Air Force. Bob and Kent wanted, to learn to fly. They were, trained and became helicopter pilots. Then they went, to Vietnam to help make, their country stronger. After their years, service ended, Kent came home, but Bob had to stay, a month longer. We prayed each day, for his safe return, to his home and loved ones here, but God saw best, to take him away, when his homecoming, was so near. Yes, we had to say farewell, to Bob. It was, so hard to do, but we have precious, memories, of him. They will help, us and comfort us too. We are so thankful, to have known Bob, the few years he lived, on this earth. His loved, ones and friends, are happy He was brought back, for Eternal Rest, in Perth. So may, his loved ones, find comfort By trusting their God, more and more, For He has given, His children the promise, Of meeting loved ones, on the golden shore.

I was three, years younger, than Robert, my older brother, used to ride motorcycles, with Robert in high school. I remember, when he went to war, a helicopter pilot. He was always, nice and I recall, his constant smile. I will remember him, always a hero, to me. we can never forget, those young men, who had no choice, but to standby, the flag/country. They will always, be our heros. true heros.

I knew Robert all through school and remember him as a fun loving guy. He was always joking around. Since our first reunion, our class has always remembered Robert and his family. I have seen the Traveling Wall and found Robert's name each time. I was surprised at the emotions I felt when I saw his name. He is in my thoughts and prayers and always will be.
