Elliot Leavitt was the beloved husband of Susan Leavitt for a wonderfully rich lifetime.
He was sweet, loving, and supportive as a husband, as he was equally for his two children, Lisa and Scott.
Beloved by his many friends, he was wonderful and easy to be with and had a delightful dry sense of humor.
He battled Parkinson's for many years, bravely and with a great positive spirit.
He will be remembered by every person whose life he touched closely.
And he will be deeply missed by his close family and friends.
But there is no one whose life he touched more closely than that of his deeply caring and supportively brave wife Susan, who was close by his side throughout his battle with this disease.
He was a wonderful model for all who are battling this terrible disease.
Love, the Phillips Family (Mark, Craig, Tracy, Roberta, Randy, Madge)
