Ellen you were instrumental in getting my child through high school, and will always be a part of myself becoming a special education teacher! You will be missed.

Ellen was always the calm sister, the cool and collected, ready to handle a crisis with grace & kindness sister. I recall a time, when her girls were little and one fell into the pool. Ellen walked by -and in mid sentence- swooped an arm down plucking her from the water. She didn’t miss a beat and her voice never wavered.

Ellen was generous with her time, making you feel cared for & included, even when you scratched her favorite cake pan while using it to make lasagna. Her caring spirit and positivity will be missed. I’m grateful to have grown up knowing her and her warmth and learned from her how to show kindness to others, even when you disagree.

My mom: she was my biggest fan and cheerleader. She never missed a game, concert, performance, activity, and only 18 inches of snow kept her from being there for Ellie’s birth, but she was there for all others! She used a bent finger to tell the story of how God healed her when she almost lost it!
She sang Barbra Streisand so loudly while cleaning, hated dirty floors, swam naked in her pool (lol she cracks me up!), was up for adventures, and hated the words “hey” (hay is for horses) and “cent” (like fifty cent, its plural, it really bothered her!). Kristi

Ellen and started teaching together the same year. She was a wonderful coworker and friend. We had so much fun helping out when Mark’s nephew got married at the lake, we had so many laughs! Sending love to Daryl, her girls (she was so proud of her daughters), and her family.
