Sandra, Jess, Joel & Bernard:

I am so sorry to hear about your dad and "paw." I was out of town this weekend and the message didn't come through until on my way back Sunday. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our prayers are with the family. I only knew Ellwood for a short period of time but I came to count on him as an anchor in that back row. That smile and nod were confirmation that I came to rely on. I take joy in knowing he is in heaven now where there is no suffering or pain.

I remember the last three christmas plays at church. Ellwood always played one of the three wise men. He was indeed a fine wise man. He always had a sparkle in his eye,with a smile on his face. Ellwood,I know you are in a better place now, so rest. Just know all the members of Mt Hermon will miss you,and we won't forget the dedication you showed to each of us. My condolences to his family.
