I worked with Ella at UCB back in 1992 to 1994. We kept in touch after that. She was my favorite coworker at the bank. She was always very kind to everyone. I remember her talking about her bird, Friday pizza night, her hobbies, etc. But mostly she talked about her sons, who she was so proud of. Later, when she worked for BB&T, I stopped by to see her when my son had just been born and she came out around the counter to hold him. We kept in tough through phone conversations on and off. She was such a special person and I know she will be missed by those whose lives she touched.

Our deepest sympathies are with you. This family lost a good person and I lost a great sister. Even though we were many many miles apart we would always have many laughs and good talks on the phone. You will be missed. We love you.

Ella was such a humble person. She was beautiful on the inside and out. Growing up as a child I wanted to be as beautiful and smart as she was. I will carry great memories of her in my heart. She will be truly missed.
I am so very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. She is now an angel watching over you to keep
You safe.
