A gorgeous girl always...in looks and spirit! Her smile lit up a room! See you on the other side, Mary Ellen...until then...

I met her through the legal community many years ago. Such a fun, thoughtful and caring person. My sincere sympathy to all who mourn her passing. Fly High lady!

A lady of good grace, an always a smile upon being in her presence, I found her to beautiful, she could have been a model.

You didn't age. You were always beautiful!

Mary Ellen and I were best friends during high school. The last several years we re-connected meeting for lunch occasionallly and then talking on the phone most recently. I'm so sorry to hear of her passing. Sending my sincere condolences to all of her family at this sad time. I will miss my friend and always remember her and the times we shared. Rest in peace Mary Ellen.

Goodbye to a great BHS classmate. You will be missed.
