DAisy, Just want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers. i can't imagine your loss. I miss her so much. Ellen was a part of my entire life, i remember her taking care of us when we were little, then working at the school with her in the kitchen and then later with us at the senior center for YEARS. I remember when she finally let me pick her up for work and would only walk home from work. (she was in her eighties at that). I don't know anyone else who worked so many years. She tried...

To All of Ellen Demit's Family
My heart was broken when I heard of Ellen's passing. She was so very sweet and always gave me her special hug and we would discuss how long it had been since seeing each other. She was one of the first people I meet in 1973 when we moved to Tok and I worked with her at Parker House she was always full of fun. My thoughts and prayers are with you all, please remember she is not in pain anymore. We will all miss her alot.

We knew Ellen from lab and x-ray. She was always so sweet and smiled whenever she came in. She always gave us a hug. She brought back memories of my grandma who passed away in 2003. We are so sorry for your loss. Your family is in our prayers. Michelle Blair, Pam Trottier & Char Slater

Daisy, Agnes and Family; Our sincere sympathy to you and yours. We have had such a good time with Aunt Ellen-during our time at 40 Mile and thoroughout my life. When I needed someone during my mother and sister's potlatch she was there. Daisy, we often don't say when we meet but we love you and are thinking of you during these times! Knowing that Auntie is with her family is comforting. We shall miss her very much.

Daisy, Agnes, and families:

My heart is broken as I heard that Gramma Ellen has passed on. Knowing that she is with her loved ones and the Lord she loved and served is comforting and that she no longer suffers from this earthly saddness. I am honored to have known Gramma and to have worked side by side with her at the Senior site. She taught my girls and I so much. I will always remember her laugh, but also her teachings in perserving her rich Native culture and traditions. My prayers...
