Ella fought a good fight, very courageous, strong willed, and brave. A valiant servant of the Lord. A loving sister and friend. A blessing to all of us throughout our lives. Our mother had 4 cancers before she passed and Ella went through 5 since 2009. She didn't give up, ever. Her only worry was about Teddy and his daughter and wife. She wanted to be here for him, and watch little Linken grow up. Just one last word, she loved the Lord with all her heart and she had a testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ and is enjoying a joyous reunion with all our family. God be with you, till we meet again. My sissy. Love, Melba
