ROTTMAN, Ellen Jane Ellen Jane Rottman, age 80 Our beloved mother, grandmother, sister and aunt has left her life on this earth to join her Savior on Thursday, October 9, 2014. Her strength, independence and perseverance without complaint was a testament and witness to all of us that loved her....
Read MoreEllen Rottman was an outstanding woman. I first met her when she taught/coached at Calvin College. Later in life we became friends and her quiet strength and courage were a source of inspiration to me. I extend my sincere Christian Sympathies to all. I just saw the obituary on Monday night. I am sorry to have missed visitation and memorial service. In Christian Sympathy, Louise Heeres Sonderfan.

Aunt Ellen was a beautiful and dignified person. We enjoyed worshiping with her and Ted at Grace when we were college students and visiting at their wonderful cottage. She will be missed. Our love and sympathy to our Rottman cousins and their families.

What a beautiful and eloquent tribute to a wonderful, grace-filled woman. It helps those of us who did not know her personally to share in your pride and thanksgiving for her life well-lived, and in your joy and peace for her going home to be with Jesus.
