Elden LeRoy Rammell, best known as "Papa Smurf" passed away on Dec. 6, 2023. He was 87.
Elden was born in Idaho Falls and was raised on a farm in Fort Shaw. He married his wife, Dorine Mable Dorr on June 16, 1957 in Vaughn, Montana. They made their home in Seeley Lake.
Elden's passion was working in the woods as a sawyer. Later in his life, he loved helping others in the Seeley Lake area by making sure they had plenty of firewood for the long winter ahead, including his fire starters that he made and gave away.
Elden had a sense of humor that always put a smile on everyone's face who knew him....
