HONORING
ELLIOTT HATHAWAY HULL
BOWL-A-NOMA is a testament to the enduring spirit of love, resilience, and compassion that defines the legacy of Elliott Hull. Elliott's life was a tapestry of selflessness and service; from safeguarding Seattle's beaches to bravely serving in Afghanistan with the United States Army airborne infantry unit, his dedication to others knew no bounds. He guided countless individuals through the milestone of purchasing their first homes and inspired friends to pursue their health goals with unwavering encouragement. Above all, his devotion to his son, wife, and family shone brightest, illuminating every aspect of his existence with boundless love and joy.
Tragically, at the tender age of 35, Elliott's journey took an unexpected turn when he was diagnosed with Stage Four Metastatic Melanoma, a diagnosis for which there were no life-prolonging therapies available. Despite the relentless efforts of medical professionals and the unwavering support of his loved ones, Elliott's valiant battle with the disease ended just four months later.
Driven by an unyielding determination to honor Elliott's remarkable life, advance crucial research into the diagnosis and treatment of melanoma, and raise vital awareness, Richard, Louise, and Amelia swiftly rallied their collective efforts. It was from this place of deep love and unwavering dedication that BOWL-A-NOMA emerged, a beacon of hope and a testament to the enduring power of unity in the face of adversity.
