ELLIS, Sharon G., 68, the pied piper of Sandston, became God's busiest angel on January 13, 2009 to join her son, Ricky. She is survived by the love of her life, Donnie; and her children, Peggy and Greg Turner, June and Chip Ritenour, Carl and Rosemary Ellis, Jennifer and Steward Martin, and Dawn and Kris Henshaw. She was blessed with 15 grandchildren, Jamison and Michelle, Derek, Ross and Julie, Brandon, Ashley, Royce, Taylor, Ryan, Colby, Kyle, Lexi, Marisa, Grant, Krew, Kassidy; and great-grandson, Christopher. She was the consummate caregiver and a real inspiration to all who met her. She owned Little Hearts Daycare for over 30 years and touched many, many lives. A memorial service will be held at Little Hearts Daycare at 304 Wootton Road, Sandston, Va. 23150, on Friday, January 16, 2009, from 2 to 7 p.m. The family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the ALS Foundation to help others. Thank you for all your words of comfort in this time of so many people's loss.
