Elliott, It's been a month since I seen your smiling face or heard your voice. Me and our dogs miss you every second of everyday. Our 10+ years together was nowhere near enough. Over that time we never went more then twenty-four hours without talking or texting and never been apart for more than a week. I miss our daily talks and our plans for the future. We will never forget you or stop loving you. Rest easy until we meet again.
Love,
Jeremy with Gambit, Beauregard, & Romulus.  

“Elliott, you were affectionately called “E-Man” or “E” by your family.  Our hearts are shattered from your loss, but so happy to have shared your life journey.  We will miss sharing recipes; shopping for whatever, surprising you with a visit, helping with those crazy car problems, and sharing pictures of our dogs.  We will miss those text messages that requested prayers for passing a certification or handling any situation, and for strength and salvation.  But most of all we will miss your super strong bear hugs, unexpected “hey” text messages to start a conversation, and those sweet Momma/Sister kisses.  Each Sunday was always greeted with “Happy Sunday Son” to start the week to ensure you put the Lord first.   I always bragged about being your fan club president and the founding member. Nothing has changed and we will continue to share your sweet memories whenever requested.  The smiles, memories, pictures, and moments will be forever engraved in our hearts and minds.  Elliott, always remember that YOU will always matter and hold a special place in our hearts..
Mom


Elliot is Free

Don’t grieve for Elliot, for he is free
He is following the Path God laid out for him.
He took God’s hand when he heard him call;
Elliot turned his back and left it all.
He could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
If his parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A loved one shared a laugh, a kiss;
Ah yes, these things, I know he will miss.
Do not grieve during this time of sorrow,
Look forward to the sunshine of tomorrow.
Elliott’s life has been full, he savored much;
Good friends, good times, and loved ones touched.
I know his time with us has seemed all too brief;
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted him now,
God set him free.
Kenneth Walton


We bonded early and you were like a son that I never had.
 Mr. Curt “MC”



To the Luster and Walton Family, 

My sincere condolences in the passing of your dear son.  There’s a quote that says “Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.”  I believe this to be true because God is close to those who are heart broken, there is no pain or sorrow that He cannot feel. During this time, may God surround you with His peace, strengthen and help you, and hold you up with His victorious right hand.  Though Elliott is absent from his earthly body, I pray that you will have joy in knowing that he is now home with his Heavenly Father!  


Hearing this news has just broken my heart. You ALWAYS had a smile on your face and could make someone laugh no matter the day they were having. You were one of my good friends during our Harding Academy days, and I am sorry we didn’t stay in touch better these last 8-10 years. 
You are going to be missed so much. Hopefully one day we’ll all get to have a Harding class of 08 reunion in Heaven one day. Love you friend ❤️ 

Sometimes life can be tough when hearts are torn in two but NOTHING can compare to the pain of losing a son. Only God & time heals the pain & sorrow. You are not alone. God is with you & He will sustain  you during this difficult time. My sincerest condolences to the family.

Ardrey Cash

My  Elly Belly,
 My heart is aching, but it is fill with joy. When you were a baby I taught you to swim. You was such fun to teach. I am privileged to have been apart of your life. Thanks cousin Kenneth and Lana  for sharing him. I will always love him. You have my prayers and thoughts.
 Love,
Cousin Kera

My heart is broken. I have always loved his fun-loving spirit and good manners. Elliott was everyone's friend, he was well-loved , and he will be missed. May God's perfect peace cover his family and friends.

Lana, Forrest, and Logan ,
We are so heartbroken to hear of Elliot’s passing.  We have many fond memories of him hanging out with Konrad, Karl, and the guys at our house.  You all have a special place in our hearts, and we pray God’s comfort, strength, and peace for you and your family.

My darling Elliot, we will have to postpone our plans for driving to Foley, God knows what's best, I stand on His Word, He knows what best so I will still cry and Pray that all is well.

I'm glad God knows our heart, and you had a good heart, you were friendly and kind to everyone you met.  I'll remember you daily as I do your cousin Ryan, your work is done and God called you home .
I'll miss you, but I'll love you always.  Love Gannie

To the Luster and Walton Family, I extend my heartfelt and sincerest condolences on the loss of your son.  I'm reminded of his youth when Lana often passed information on to help me with my son by sharing camps, clinics, workshops, and information  etc. in the development of my son.  While no words are adequate in times like these, please believe earth has no sorry that heaven cannot heal.  A huge void has been left but pray, and fill them with sweet memories of great times, funny times and yes the times you thought were  insignificant.  Remember the love shared and last remember: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to thine own understanding; but in ALL things acknowledge HIM and He will direct your path.  The Boyland, Fields and Fifer family send words of comfort, prayers, and truly our LOVE.  

Rest in peace Elliott    Always enjoyed our regular catch ups by video call and text  which always ended in  trying to make plans for you  to visit the UK. I am deeply saddened by this news and pray you are at rest.  Until we meet again  x

I'm speechless! My heart ❤  goes out to this family, my spiritual family.  I pray that you trust God at this most difficult time.  May HE flood your hearts with peace and comfort, in knowing that absence from this body is presence with the LORD. I love you and will continue to pray for you. ❤❤🙏🏿🙏🏿

Our hearts, thoughts and prayers go out to the family and our leader, Lana, during this difficult time.  While I didn't have an opportunity to meet or know Elliott, I do know his mother and they say fruit doesn't fall too far from the tree, so he had to be good fruit. May the precious memories you now have to hold so dear, brighten your days ahead and may the peace of God that passeth all understanding, guard and guide your hearts through Christ Jesus our Lord.  Prayerfully submitted Floyd & Cassandra Williams (Texas).

I am so heart broken. Teacher-student relationships  are unique and special. It’s sad to see Elliot leave, but I am better man for our relationship.

Elliott was an amazing man! His smile and friendliness will be remembered forever. He was my close friend throughout high school and we ended up going to the same college when we were done. There in Knoxville, with our friend Mallory Roberts, we bought an ear piercing gun and spent the night bleeding and laughing in his dorm room with Carrigan Martin. 
Elliott, Arthur Knotts, Zach Tow, and I had a pact of friendship that transcends both time and space, no matter how different we all turned out. The last time we got together, for Zach's bachelor party, Elliott went all out in his generosity, showing how much he cared about his friends. 
Elliott will live on in our hearts for eternity. A man to be loved, to be cherished, to be remembered. I love you Elliott!

Love you bud. Rest easy. Sorry for not reaching out enough.

Though we only knew each other less than two years you were a special person and I will never stop missing you.

I was Elliott’s fourth grade teacher at Harding Academy in Cordova and am heartbroken to hear this news. I remember Elliott as a very energetic, funny and sweet fourth grader. Sending my condolences to his friends and family. I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️

I've known Elliott since 2016 when he lived in Knoxville.  We texted a few times every week.  I know he loved his family!  He would mention his Mom, Dad, Step Dad, and Grandmother often.  I'm so sorry for your loss.
Thanks
