We remember all of the good times in Chaumont NY. How Ellen was always there. Sunny disposition. Good cheer. Encouraging us to swim better, sail better - and have fun.
Visiting Macomb Street was no different.
I always enjoyed visiting with Phyllis and Dick to that huge house across from the park. In my Dad's old neighborhood.
It was only February when we last saw Ellen at my Mom's funeral. Too swift for someone so good.
We will remember and cherish Ellen in only the best memories of family get-togethers and friendship.
Sincerely,
Jim, Barbara, and Dean Evans
