My deepest condolences to Ellen's family. Ellen was a wonderful friend to my mother for more than 60 years at NRHA and after retirement. They shared a love of reading. I know she will be missed.

To Ellen's family,

We worked together at NRHA years ago and were both active in WICi. We kept in touch with Christmas cards and once in a while had lunch and shared many good times. I always enjoyed her company and sense of humor. She was faithful to her church work and I know she loved doing that. I will miss her.

I knew Ellen from the Irvington Methodist Church. She was always a diligent, reliable and consistent worker on anything she tackled. It was a pleasure to work with her on a committee because she was always committed to getting the job done. I knew her during our high school and college years.
