Tom and family. Charlie and I were so sadden to hear about Ellen’s passing. She was a wonderful friend to us. We first met her when she worked with us at Yale, then with us at the coffee shop in Branford. I’m sorry we just heard about this, as we would have been at her memorial mass. May she Rest In Peace.

To the Mott and Wilson families - my heartfelt sympathy on your loss. Ellen was a lovely person. I remember her fondly from my children’s days at St Mary’s School. She was always so kind and helpful to students and adults alike. She will be missed by all who knew her.
