Dear Tim & Family,
She was a Saint-offering up every ounce of her suffering for the souls of her family and sanctification of others. She encouraged me to fast when I needed a mountain to move. She was a devoted Catholic wife, an amazing super mom -recall our MOMS group gave her the Mother of Mercy award! A true woman of virtue, abundant in generosity! A woman of service always thinking of others and an authentic woman of faith which defined Ellen Snyder! I´ll treasure her bright smile and uplifting spirit in my heart. Her interior light of Christ within her will continue to be seen and felt through her loving family! Peace and prayers as we grieve and rejoice as she enters her eternal home!

Tim
There are no words of comfort as strong as knowing that Ellen, a believer in Jesus Christ is at her forever home. We Christians temporarily left here to mourn will deal with grief in our individual way, yet we share in the promise that we too will someday join Ellen Mary in the presence of our glorified Savior. Many are hurting today for you, especially the FP brotherhood/sisterhood who had the blessing to know her. Stay strong, reach out if you need to, we love you. Yours in Christ, Marty Link
