Just from reading the forum his the last couple years seemed like they were too much for anyone to take.

thank you for your contributions and Rest In Peace Sir. Cry

Well... this makes me very very sad. He helped me refurbish my Rally Pak! He was so so so helpful. He really went the extra mile for me too. I pray for his family. He was such an important part of this forum. He will be missed. Rest in easy in heaven John!

Very sad to hear this news....

Many years ago, John spent a lot of time emailing me (a perfect stranger) with vital information that helped me get my very first 6cyl AMC set up correctly and running perfectly!!

I use his advice to this day to get 6cyl AMC's running properly!

I'm very glad I got to meet him in person in Kenosha in the very car that he helped to make the trip possible!!!

Thank you, John!

Hello AMC family! I am John Elle's daughter. Dad was well known in the AMC world and I just obtained access to his account. I wanted to notify you of his passing but I see that news has reached all of you. It's been hard and wonderful to read your kind words. I'd like to share with you his obituary:

John Tice Elle of Peoria, AZ and formerly of Rochester, NY passed away from congestive heart failure on Thursday, September 27, 2018.

He is survived by his brother Bruce (Beth) Elle of Sebastian, FL; his daughters Brenda Elle of Los Angeles, CA and Stefanie Elle of San Jose, CA; his two grandchildren Sonja Tice Rossi and Nathan James Rossi; his nephews Bruce (Ros) Elle, and Jacob Powell; and his niece Erin (Todd) Orr.

A service in his memory was held at Saint Andrew’s Anglican Church in Phoenix, AZ on Saturday, November 10th and he is interred there, in accordance with his wishes.

More can be found here on his Facebook page, which I have added to his member profile: https://www.facebook.com/john.elle.9

He has received numerous messages since his passing and I will continue to monitor his account to respond/notify anyone who reaches out to him.

I have also joined this forum with the handle 1970-Bittersweet in honor of my father and the family Javelin, which I have taken over and share with my sister.

Thank you for the kind words about my father. - Stefanie Elle

Oh, my!  I enjoyed John (Uncle Grr).  I'm very sorry to hear of his passing.  I/we and others go way, way back to the South Bay AMX Club of San Jose, CA.  I'll miss him.  Peace.  Mike
