William Frederick Ellis

The Final Salute

“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.


This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to William Fredrick (Bill) Ellis our Brother in Arms. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Bill. And to Bill it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for...

Dear Evelyn,
Our love and prayers are with you.What a legacy he left you, a lifetime of wonderful memories that will be comforting.

may God bless William and you Evelyn

Dear Evelyn: What a truly outstanding man who will be missed by all that knew him. He was one of our favorite people. We still miss you both on the dance floor.

Evelyn, It has been so many years since we have seen one another. I still remember the day back in 1975 when I came over from Liberty and spent the day with you.

I have lived in Carthage for 13 years and love it here where my sons and grandsons are.

I have understanding sympathy for you as I lost Pat 10 years ago when he was only 66.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Vernette
