IN MEMORIAM
Darrell Elliott
Darrell Elliot was an active LCECS Committee Member at the time of his death. Darrell was also a past president of the ACI-Louisiana Chapter, one of the hosting organizations of the LCECS. Often being referred to as "Dr. Concrete," Darrell was internationally recognized for his knowledge in Concrete issues. Many material presentations for the LCECS were the result of the speaker having a professional relationship with Darrell, which is why it is only fitting to have the marquee presentation in the Materials section named after him.
