There are no words to describe how sorry I was to learn about Ellen. For over 30 years we visited every day.. All of our children grew up together. so we always had something to talk about. I loved my neighbor so much. I pray. that the good Lord, be with all of you and I send my love and sympathy. Ellen is now in a place so much better than we all are.

Our hearts go out to Ellen's family and friends! We were blessed to have had the privilege of spending some beach time with Ellen, Donna, Barry and Nettie in the early Fall. Ellen brought smiles and stories and a sweet spirit in spite of not feeling well. It was so evident how much she loved her family, including Nettie. See you on the other side, sweet Ellen! Sad for now, Bobby & Betty
