Obituary

Irvin Elliott passed away at his home in Braggs, Oklahoma on Saturday, November 8, 2025, at the age of 74 years.

Irvin is the son of Rev. Tom Elliott and Bea (Dilbeck) Elliott, the tenth of their ten children.  He was born on September 4, 1951, in Calvin, Oklahoma, where he was brought up and attended school, graduating Calvin High School with the Class of 1968.  He joined the U. S. Army in 1969 and served in Vietnam and the Midwest region of the U.S.  He worked in Personnel Administration and for a brief time as a recruiter, achieving the rank of Staff Sergeant before he retired in 1995 after twenty years of service.  He attended Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, where he earned a bachelor's degree in Drafting and Design, and drafted plans for the HeadStart building on the Calvin School campus. He worked for a while as a long-haul trucker before officially retiring in 2000. He was married to Glenda Davison on December 2, 2000, in Calvin.

Irvin's interests were many and varied.  He enjoyed firearms, vehicles, and his Harley-Davidson.  One of the "coolest" moments was winning his 1970 Chevy Camaro and Pink Floyd guitar from Biker's Against Drunk Drivers ("BADD").  Along with this charitable organization, he was dedicated to supporting military troops and all first responders, and was a member of the VFW.
