He is survived by his wife Marian of 48 years, his children Ralph Kesterke, Carol Schiele, Karen (Doug) Fenton and his grandchildren Scott, Brent, Brady, Paige, Kaitlyn and Ethan as well as numerous other family and friends.
Elmer was a dedicated and passionate farmer and long-time member of the Trochu Baptist Church. He will be remembered as a fun and caring man who was full of life. Always with a smile on his face, ready to tell a story or a joke.
