Ellen S. Seitz, 69, of Hamilton, passed away, surrounded by her loving family, on Saturday, April 5, 2025, at Hamilton Grove in Hamilton, NJ.
Born in Trenton and raised in Lawrence, Ellen graduated from Lawrence High School. She was a secretary for the State of New Jersey serving in the Attorney General's Office for 20 years until her retirement last year.
In her younger years, Ellen loved to dance and participate in dance competitions. It was at Carnegie Hall where Ellen met her future husband, Bill. She never lost her love for upbeat dance music! In years past she also enjoyed making ceramics and sharing her creations with friends and family. She loved playing the slot machines in Atlantic City and Parx Casino. Above all else, she treasured time with family, especially her grandchildren. She will be fondly remembered for making every holiday special for her family.

(Bower) Stearle; and her siblings, Frank Stearle, Cathy Harle, JoAnne Brennan, and Mary Schwear;, Ellen is survived by her loving husband, William F. Seitz; her children, William B. Seitz and his wife, Carly, Kaitlyn M. White and her husband, Brent, Jacklyn A. Seitz, and Jessica M. Seitz and her fiancé, Wilfredo Rivera; her grandchildren, Nathan L. White and William John Seitz; and her brother, Timothy Stearle and his wife, Maryanne DiSalvo Stearle.
