Ellen L. MATTOCKS

Dear Marion, Gary and Garrett, Just heard about Ellen, so sorry for your loss. Though it's been many years, I,too have many memories of hanging out with you, Marion, in your room with Ellen there, too, talking, laughing, sharing secrets, maybe dancing and generally being crazy!! Also the ice skating on Bryant pond.. so many great memories! You are in my thoughts..Peace be with you. Love, Sue (and Bill)

Rest in peace, dear Ellen. I cherish the memories of our good times – our travels, shopping, the Cape, parties, our silly, laughing ‘til we cried times. You touched so many lives in your shortened time with us – you will never be forgotten. Kindred spirits…until we meet again my friend.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Kevin and her family and loved ones.

Dear Kevin, Marion, Gary, Cheryl & Rich,

I am so sorry for your loss. Ellen's spirit and goodness shall always remain with you. I can absolutely hear her laughter and from this day forward, the stars will forever shine brighter!

I hope that countless memories of love & happiness will carry you through this very difficult time. I also hope that this poem will offer you some comfort.

Sincerely,
Greg

A flower...

It's hard to put our friendship into words. Anyone who knew us back in the 70's knew we were as thick as thieves. We put many miles on her Chevy Nova, mostly cruising back and forth to McDonalds in Simsbury just to hang out. The BEST of friends through many ups and downs. We went to school together, worked together, partied together, laughed together and cried together. She has taken a piece of my heart with her. Rest in Peace my forever friend. I will miss you.

Also.... I remember driving with you thru some row of trees on both sides, was that in Bristol??, anywaze... the point of the exercise was to drive thru the row with your eyes CLOSED!! AND........ YOU DID THAT!! You were a lot of fun!

Ellen, Ellen, Ellen... you will be missed. My Mother has been trying to call you for months, numbers no longer in service, etc. We had no idea. You were a treasured addition to the family, and the Cancer (Moonchildren) division at that! May you be in a brighter, more enthusiastic location in the realm of possibilities. Thanks for all you did. Love and prayers, the Rembock family.

I first met Ellen 53 years ago on Bryant's Pond where she and her sister Marion (my sister in law)taught me to ice skate. I was just 5 then, and as the years went by we spent many winters at the pond together after school and on Saturdays. I'll never forget the time she and Marion held my dad's hands and skated around the pond with him on his new "hockey skates" for the first time that he got for Christmas. Wish we had smartphones then! Years went by and Ellen was the photographer at my...

I am so sorry we lost track of each other recently.I would like to have been there for her as she was such a wonderful go to person for me always.
There were so many good times shared since the 70s- parties, bands, weddings, friends, hot air balloons, pictures, hair cuts and perms.She was an angel here on earth,truly a blessing. Can't say enough, RIP
