Not sure what to say?

Loved seeing her at the Y, and reminiscing about the Blue Dolphin Synchronized Swim Team.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My sympathies to Ellie's family. I knew her through the German clubs here in Toledo. I remember her and Kurt being wonderful dancers. I crossed her path years later while working in a Promedica facility where we enjoyed conversation in her room. She was a truly beautiful person in so many ways! Kathy Boehm Ehlers Northwood, OH

Ellie was a wonderful neighbor of mine. I also knew her as The Plant Lady at Dana Corp when I worked there. I loved talking to her. She was a superb swimmer too, being a member of a synchronized swimming group. I was a hospice nurse most of my life & I´ll never forget the day Kurt was brought in. What a love story these 2 had. I will miss her but I´m glad she´s with Kurt now.

Ellie will be missed.she taught me many things.
