The late Alden Elliott, a cherished member of the Newton community, tragically passed away while serving as a police officer. Known for his bravery and dedication, Alden died "getting the bad guys," a testament to his commitment to protecting his community. He was not only a police officer but also a Marine, renowned for his kindness and patience.
Alden’s passing has left his family in deep grief, particularly his son, Theo. Anthony McCormick has organized a GoFundMe campaign titled "Help Secure Theo’s Future in Memory of Alden" to support the family during this difficult time. The fundraiser aims to raise $10,000 to ensure Theo’s future remains bright despite the tragic loss of his father.
Theo fondly remembers his father as a hero and the best daddy. They shared many hobbies, including playing video games like Mario, Zelda, and Metroid Return of Samus, collecting Pokémon cards, and watching every Star Wars movie and series together. Alden also instilled a love for baseball in Theo, with the Dodgers being their favorite team. For Theo’s 12th birthday, Alden bought him a dirt bike, and they planned to ride together, a dream Theo hopes to fulfill in his father’s memory.
Alden’s expertise as a marksman and his devotion to his family made him a role model for Theo, who aspires to be just like his father. The community’s support through donations will not only help secure Theo’s future but also honor the legacy of a man who gave so much to those around him.
