Ildy
So very sorry to hear of Ells passing. He will be dearly missed. He was a very good friend and mentor to me. Thanks to his mentorship I became the best Nuclear Research Officer I could be. I will always remember the New Mexico hunts with Ells and Brian. Also, the many get togethers with you and Brian's family. Lots of fun there. Now He, Susan and Linda are enjoying eternity with God. God Bless you and Tim.
