My husband and I have several of Ellen's paintings displayed in our home. We used to see her yearly at the Park Point Art Fair in Duluth, MN, and loved visiting with her as well a looking at all her paintings and also purchasing some very lovely ones. We loved her country style and beautiful colors. Our condolences to her family and our blessings.

My heartfelt sympathy to the Eilers family. I hope you will find comfort in God's promise at John 11:24,25. Knowing there is a future for those we have lost in death can be very reassuring during this difficult time.
