His brothers Paul (Ethel) Elliott, Stanley (Darlene) Elliott, Michael (Susan) Elliott and Bruce (Marlene) Elliott. He lost his parents at a young age living in the small mining town of Bevinsville to be raised by his brother Paul, the others had been drafted into the service and were not home a lot. He started working shortly thereafter and this is attributed to his very strong work ethic; he worked 6-7 days a week his whole life. He moved to Chicago where he met Susan Esterly and married and had two daughters. They later divorced. After, he had a long-time partner, Catherine Murley. They had a son together then later separated. He moved to Wisconsin in the mid 80's and settled in Aniwa where he lived the rest of his life.

He worked for Karcz Home Sales since moving to Wisconsin where his bosses became more family than friends. He learned a lot working form them and got HVAC certified and did heating a cooling install and repair.
