My name is Marv Regensberg. I am Ellas nephew. I grew up with Ellas son Pete. Little Pete was my best friend for a long time. Ella was like another mom to me. Each day during several years of grade school Little Pete and I would walk to my house or his house for lunch where my mom Anne or Ella would have lunch ready for us. My aunt Bessie was always good to me. Thank you Auntie. You will be missed. With Love. Marv Regensberg.
