Ellen and i met our first year in college. We took our first trip to Europe together in 1970 and Ellen was my maid of honor in 1971 in NYC. I last saw her in June 2006.

Ellen has left a huge impact in my heart.

We will always remember Ellen's fantastic sense of humor. She took an active interest in people and will be missed by all her friends and family.

My heartfelt wishes go out to Ellen's family. We have lost a wonderful person. May her legacy live on.
