Ellen was my best friend during elementary and early high school. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. She was an extraordinary woman and will be sorely missed by many. ❤️❤️

Dear David, Jonathan, and Elizabeth, Ellen was a high school classmate of mine. We went our separate ways after graduation, but I have never forgotten the beautiful impression she made on me during those years. I remember her as very bright, kind, beautiful to look at and in her way of being. She was genuinely liked for herself. The picture I see of her as an adult is a confirmation to me of her potential. Friendly goodness suffuses her face, simplicity her form and garb. My deepest sympathies to you and families. I am sad at her passing.

Dear David, Jonathan, Libby and families, Don and I send our love and deepest sympathy to you all. Ellen, Marcy, and I were high school classmates in Monroe and and when Cliff and Marcy married, our family was enriched immeasurably! The world is suddenly diminished by her passing. Sally
