Dear Mrs. Lewis:

Marilyn and I send our condolences on Eldon’s passing.

He was a highly valued member of the CSUSB campus community for many years. In fact, he stepped into the breach to offer remarkable and needed service as Dean of the College of Business and Public Administration—and he did it twice!

I’m sorry that I learned of his passing too late to be at the memorial service, but please know that you, your children, and your grandchildren are in our thoughts. In addition, the College and University wish to develop an excellence fund in Eldon’s name.

Regards,

Albert K. Karnig
President

Dear Stel,

I was so sad to read of Eldon's death. Since I moved from California in 2006, I hadn't realized that he had been ill. Eldon was a favorite colleague of mine, and he was especially helpful to me when I was vice president for university relations at Cal State.

I remember fondly the time you came to our place in Irvine for drinks and then treated us to dinner at P.F. Chang's in Fashion Island. Of course, Eldon and I were both Missourians by birth and Jawhawks by education, so we had several things in common.

Glenn joins me in extending sympathy to you and all your family.

With warm regards,

Eldon was one of the nicest and most professional colleagues I have had the pleasure of working with and under. I remember him as fair and straight-forward in the way he dealt with faculty. He will be remembered as a true scholar, colleague and good friend. ##imported-begin##Harold Dyck##imported-end##

Don Marshall has informed me of your loss. Eldon was a true friend/colleague/gentleman. We had some great times over the years. Nancy and I enjoyed our times with you and Eldon. Eldon recommended me to Washburn University where is taught 24 years, retiring in 1997. My Nancy died of cancer in 2000. I live alone with one child nearby, one in St. Louis and one in New Orleans.

Eldon was a true gentleman & scholar. He was inspirational in his professionalism, integrity and leadership. I pray God's richest blessings on him, his family and all whom may mourn his loss to us, yet whose hearts are as confident as mine that he has simply gone to be with our precious Lord, and serve in some way for the glory of God and His people. May God bless you with his richest treasures as you serve Him more closely now and, thank you, Eldon, for your blessings to us who loved you here, as a colleague and friend. With confidence that we will meet again, with respect, admiration, gratitude, respect and love, your humble friend, Lance.

I am truly saddened to hear that Eldon passed away. Eldon was one of the “good guys”….a wonderful professional, a good leader, and a kind and gentle soul. He always knew how to make you feel valued with a comment of thanks for something you had done, or a note of congratulations for a professional accomplishment. He most definitely made the college a better place to be. I felt blessed to have had the opportunity to get to know him and work with him.

My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Please accept the condolences of the entire Accounting, Economics and Finance Department at West Texas A&M University. I remember Eldon from my days as a student at WT and credit him with ensuing success in academics since one needs people like him to inspire others to pursue our academic careers. I am sure he will be missed by many and please know we are thinking of all of you at this time.
