Danny Paul Elliott was born on September 11, 1948 in Chickasha, OK to Bill Elliott and Helen (Cornwell) Elliott. He left this world for his eternal home in glory on October 19, 2018 in Bethany, OK at the age of 70.
Danny grew up in the area around Tuttle, OK and graduated from Tuttle High School. He married Brenda Rachelle (Walker) Elliott on August 16, 1985. They were happily married for 33 years. Danny had a strong affection for the outdoors all his life. His greatest joy in the outdoors was fishing. He loved to go fishing and it was even better when he was fishing with his children. Danny also enjoyed taking the boys hunting. He and Brenda made several trips up to Colorado for the purpose of fishing and to simply be in Colorado.
Danny tried to be involved with his children as much as he could while they were growing up. He even took on the role of soccer coach just to be involved with them. He took great pride in his grandchildren as well and loved having them over to his house for sleepovers. The sleepovers were great fun for the grandkids and for Danny and Brenda.
Over the years, Danny worked at a number of places. TG&Y (for those who remember that store), Oklahoma Graphics and Brown & McClure Lumber. He ran his own remodeling company for 5 years. His last place of employment was OPUBCO, from which he retired. The work he enjoyed the most was the remodeling business.
Danny Elliott was a man that no matter where he went, someone seemed to know him. If he ended up someplace where they didnt know him, they would before he left. You could be sure that it was Danny coming by with a 7-11 Big Gulp cup in his hand.
Danny was preceded in death by his parents and two children, Bethany Rachelle Elliott and Matthew William Elliott. He is survived by his wife, Brenda; daughter, Andrea Michelle Littlecreek and husband, Rich of Oklahoma City; sons, Erick Scott Elliott of Oklahoma City, Christopher Paul Elliott and wife, Jennifer of Moore, OK, Justin Paul Elliott and wife, Justine of Littleton, CO; 7 grandchildren, Marissa Elliott, Karlee Snowdon and husband, Taylor, Lane Elliott, Caden Elliott, Josie Littlecreek, Drew Littlecreek and Billy Elliott; great-grandson, Barrett Elliott; sister, Joyce Thornton of Edmond, OK; brothers, Charles Mark Elliott and wife, Sherry of El Reno, OK and John Patrick Elliott of Washington; and a host of other relatives and friends who will miss him dearly and the wonderful impact he made on each of their lives.
