Ellen Hardy Dawson

Kenneth, Preacher, & family

I just ran into Preacher at Wade's and learned today about Ellen. I am so sorry. I didn't really know Ellen very well, but Preacher is a very good friend of my husband's and mine, and also my mother, Henrietta Lewis Logan, was a good friend of Preacher & Syble's. Preacher & Syble knew each other from childhood (in Pennington Gap), and we went to church together for several years at Main Street Baptist. Please know my husband and I are praying for...

Dear Dawson Family,
I just heard about Ellen's death. I enjoyed working with her at CHS. Her pleasant personality always greeted both staff and students in the Library. She will be missed. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Kenny and Family,
Oh my goodness! I just heard about Ellen. I am so sad! You and Ellen have been special to my Kenny and me for a LONG time.....from grade school.....I will remember Ellen's quick wit and contagious smile. A neat lady... I feel fortunate to have known Ellen and called her my friend. I pray God will comfort you and your children with many wonderful memories that will keep her alive in your hearts.

Best, Joyce Perkins

Dear Angie and Family
I am so sorry. I have always remembered how kind she was to a silly teenage boy so long ago. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Kenneth and Family,
I know Ellen is an Angel and my prayer for you all is one of comfort and only love and fond memories. Ellen was one in a million. A beautiful person and an example of a Christian lady. God bless you all. Sincerely, Ellen Moses Tompkins

Dear Kenneth, Kathy, Angie, and family,
The funeral service today was beautiful, Ellen would have been so proud. She is also very proud of each and every one of you, for she knows that you will continue her legacy...to serve the Lord. It won't be the same to look over toward her seat during church services and not see her there. However, we must remember that she is still worshipping in that great mansion above, and we will join her someday. Until then, hang in there, be strong, and know...

Kenneth, so sorry to hear about Ellen. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Always a smile; always a kind word--this is how I will remember Ellen. She was a treasure and I am so blessed to have had a good friend like her as I went through those teenage years. She is one of my memories which brings a smile to my face.

YOU ARE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS CONSTANTLY. WE WOULD LIKE NOTHING BETTER THAN TO BE THERE WITH YOU ALL.
DURING MY RECENT OPERATION I WAS COMFORTED BY THE REALIZATION THAT "GOD WAS IN CONTROL". AND HE STILL IS.
LOVE YOU ALL, UNCLE BILL & LOTTIE
