He hated the name Elijah and so went by Roscoe unless a full legal name was needed.

I could NOT find his grave the last time I went (2014) but I swear I saw it when I went 30 years before. I don't live close by and cant visit often. If anyone could find and photograph I would be really appreciative!!
