Not sure what to say?

Grief can be so hard, but your special memories help you cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always. Ellen was a sweet lady and raised a wonderful family. Sending my condolences to each of you.

She was the life-long friend of a friend, but became mine, as well. She was loved by many and will be remembered by many more

I'm terribly sorry I won't be able to come to the service. She was a wonderful person and she'll definitely be missed!

She was an absolute jewel and touched so, so many people. She was precious to me, my family, our church family and the community. Words are not enough to pay tribute to her. When her family was young, she somehow found the time to help me through a very difficult time and set me on a successful path. She was warm, gentle, loving. I am forever grateful for her kindness, support and love. My prayers are with her family.

I had the pleasure of meeting Ellen while caring first for her father and then again for her daughter Denise. She was so kind, warm and cared deeply. Her family, next to Jesus, was her world. She also asked about me too, my family, and always asked, "is there anything I can pray with you about?" She genuinely cared for people, a rare quality in this day and time. Praying for this precious family on their new journey. Heaven is for sure Sweeter.

Ellen is now celebrating new life in Heaven.

She was a wonderful Christian woman, I loved her dearly.❤❤❤

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

To Lisa and family, my deepest condolences on the loss of your sweet mother. Praying for you all.
