Elmer was a great guy, a gentleman with a good sense of humor. I worked with him on his post-retirement career, which included gardening. He liked to work and brought joy and ingenuity to whatever task he had before him. As a result, he left the world a more beautiful place. I miss talking with him, but I will always remember his recipe for the best corn on the cob: "Boil the water. Then pick the corn."
