My daughter had the privilege of being Ellamae's 2nd grade teacher. She often told me cute stories about her. She was a sweet loving little girl! We all have a beautiful guardian angel ! I pray God will give you peace and comfort.

I did not have the privilege to of knowing Ellamae . I do know that she was way too young to not add her beauty to our lives. I guess God wanted to see her more often. Even God can be stingy.
