Ellen had a beautiful smile and was such a warm caring person. She made a difference in the world. Though I didn't see her often, I'll always remember her big heart. I am so sorry that she isn't here with us today. Much Love always.

Ellen stood out as someone so beautiful and special inside and out. She was so kind and always warm hearted. I knew her from our old neighborhood. She was a great swimmer on the Rock Creek pool swim team, so graceful like the person she was. I miss her and wish she was still in the world. Love, Joanie

I can’t believe a year has gone by since Ellen passed. I think of her almost daily and still have a hard time but I will always have so many wonderful memories of her. Rest In Peace Ellen

I had the honor of knowing Ellen and Jules during his illness. He was a dear, dear man--such a cheerful, kind person. But to see Ellen care for him, week after week, year after year...that was a lesson in love and devotion. She was loving, funny, smart and a fierce advocate for anything he needed.

I am so sorry to hear about Ellen's passing. We lived in the same neighborhood and she and I were on the rock creek swim team. I remember what a beautiful delightful person she was. I am so sad about the news. I know though she has made a difference in so many lives. I found her so special and so lovable. Joanie

Dear Gordon Family,I am so sorry to hear about Ellen.I had the great pleasure of knowing your parents for 35 years. Both Jules and Ellen were two of the nicest people I ever met. You are all in my thoughts. Be well. Scot Brewer
