Catherine Ellingson

Lee and Janet, Stan and Jan and families:

How beautiful Heaven must be and how the angels must be rejoicing to have another precious child come home to her eternal reward. Can't you just hear the reunion in heaven? Singing and shouting and smiles and hugs...and back with grandma and grandpa, other family members, and dad making her laugh? Although we celebrate her 'graduation', so many here, my family included, will miss her so. We are all in shock but our Father never makes mistakes....

"Mom" was a wonderful example of living life to the fullest and allowing God to be in control of that life. I was so blessed to have her as my Mother-in-law for 33 years. She is greatly missed.

Catherine will truly be missed. She was my English I&II facilitator at Indiana Wesleyan University ~ Cincinnati Branch last year. We loved her so much, she was such an inspiration to every life she touched. God bless you all.

Stan, Jan and Family -
Our apostle Paul reminds us of what is so hard to hear but is clearly true, that you and all of Catherine's family and friends, and we, will soon be together forever. There is no greater comfort than to know that your sweet dear mother, Catherine to the rest of us, has had the chance to be personally greeted by our dear Jesus and she is smiling and waiting for you even now. Bless your hearts.

Stan, Jan and family,
Was so sorry to hear of your mothers passing. You have our deepest sympathy and may God comfort you in this time of sorrow. You have a lovely family and I know your mother was so proud of.
Love and prayers to all!!

What a shock it was to hear of Aunt Catherine's passing!!! She was always so "young", energetic, vibrant, and sweet. However, we're happy to know she's in a better place now. So glad that we can be here with other family for the funeral, etc.

Catherine, my beloved sister, it was such a shock to have you get your call to come home, it's suppertime, just when Ruth and I were anticipating your yearly visit to North Carolina.Love, Virginia & family , Randleman, NC

What a shock to hear of Aunt Catherine's passing! Her sweet, gentle spirit will be missed. I'm sure Dad is happy to have someone new in Heaven to laugh at his antics. Mom already misses you.

Granny will be dearly missed...or as Shawn (2 years old) puts it "grinny"! Life just won't be the same now since you are gone, but I know you are in a much better place...can't wait to be reunited again someday! Love you always!
