And now, 20 years later, Sgt. Elliott's son Nate is a deputy sheriff with the Seneca County Sheriff's Department in Tiffin, Ohio. Nate was 3 years old when his father was killed.
Sunday morning, Sgt. Elliott's oldest daughter, Gloria, who was 11 at the time of the shooting, laid a half dozen artifical red roses at the grave of her father at Riverside Cemetery in Troy. She spent several minutes in silence.
Elliott's widow, Tammie Elliott-Gehle, is very active in the national organization called COPS (Concerns Of Police Survivors).
