Ellen Joy Knopp

Ellen was a kind and gentle soul. Her warm and calm presence will be missed. Sincere condolences to her family.

She was one of my "Venezuela Moms" and it breaks my heart she had to go. When I think of her, she is always smiling and laughing in the images in my mind. I didn't realize her middle name was Joy but how fitting..she was joyful! I can still hear her laugh She was natural, easy to talk to, kind, friendly, fun loving, caring and I know she was a great Mother because she raised a wonderful daughter who has been a best friend since 3rd grade! I know many will miss her. My thoughts and...

I had the great pleasure of meeting and working with Ellen when she worked at the Pontiac GMC dealer and I worked for GMAC. She was a delight to speak with, always enjoyed a great joke and good gossip! She loved her family and I was glad to call her a friend. She will be missed!

Ellen is now rejoicing with her Lord!

I miss my friend. I will miss her laughter, the stories she told about her loving family that she truly loved and were such a joy to her and I will miss her presence across the bridge table. She was a sweet lady and I was lucky to know her.

I met Ellen at the bridge table. I loved playing bridge with her and visiting with her over the phone. She was such a delightful person, always positive. "Joy" is a perfect middle name for her! That's what she gave to me. Cheryl Baumgardner

My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
