To My Block as I called him. We the Robinsons, Myers and Palmers will always love ❤️ you as part of our family and will miss you with all of our hearts. God bless your journey to Heaven.
My Condolences to both the Blocker and Taylor Family! Elliot was a kind, loving, funny and family oriented Man. No more pain. You’ll truly be missed !
My heartfelt condolences go out to the Blocker family. I remember John from playing basketball at Booker T. Washington High School where he was the first we saw dribble a basketball behind his back. He was a great high basketball player. I’ll never forget that. May God bless his spirit and his family.

We’re from the same root, the same family tree; into this world we sprouted, call it destiny. It’s Cousin to Cousin, a special thing, a closeness to which we’re tied, and you’ve always been there to laugh with me, or even cried. Anyway, I think it’s fantastic that you were meant to be part of my life, my cousin, you’ll always be special to me! Your fight is over, rest in peace.
