Norman W. Elliott, Sr.

Norman W. Elliott Sr, 80, went to be with the Lord on the afternoon of January 24, 2019. Norman was born July 22, 1938, son of Herbert and Susan Loy Elliott of Mt. Washington.  Upon graduation from South Hills High School in 1956, he immediately entered an apprenticeship with the American Iron and Steel Institute at Mellon Institute and then completed a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry at University of Pittsburgh.  His passion for innovation led him to be one of the founders at Datagraphics Incorporated and subsequently started his own company Chem-Bac Environmental Systems Incorporated which he lead for 40 years.  He honorably served in the United States Army Engineer Corps from 1961 to 1969.  Norman was an avid collector of model trains, stamps, coins and vintage toys.

Norman is survived by his loving wife of 58 years Janet P. (Jasick) Elliott, his two children Janet S. Palek (Richard Palek), Norman W. Elliott Jr. (Julia Elliott) and three beloved grandchildren Tyler W. Elliott, Tory L. Elliott and Kennedy Ann Palek.
