    R.I.P, You will be greatly missed by all your students. My condolences to the family and friends. He had a great impact on my son.

    My prayers are with his family, and he had a large family that included Elliot students over the 30 year period and the Wolves family. He saw many of his young students and players become grown, responsible adults. Thank you for allowing him to become a part of our lives. A piece of him lies in so many of our hearts. Gone, but NEVER will be forgotten. I thank God for lending him to us for a season.

    Thank you all for the kind words, emails and phone calls in our time of loss. Mr. Smith was a “one in a million” type of man. Firm but fair, gentle and loving to his students and a good friend to the staff. He often went above and beyond for his students in his typical quiet manner.
    Rest in Peace Mr. Smith – we will always remember your honorable spirit and kindness.

    Proud to be a member of the Elliot Family.
