Elton was a veteran of the United States Air Force serving as an aircraft maintenance instructor. He was a dedicated aircraft mechanic with over 35 years of service at TWA. He was passionate about his work, often tinkering and solving mechanical challenges. His commitment extended beyond his job when he would help his family and friends, even traveling to Bolivia with Noma for a mission trip, where he helped overhaul a missionary pilot’s aircraft engine.

Elton was also actively involved in his community, serving as a board member and volunteer at Calvary, as well as being a member of IAMAW. In his free time, Elton enjoyed reading, maintaining a beautiful yard and riding his Gold Wing motorcycle with Noma through 48 states and Canada over the years, but most of all spending time with family. He was truly loved and will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Memorials may be made in Elton's name to Calvary Church Missions.
