Sincere condolences to the family of this beautiful lady. She spent many Sunday afternoons at Chesdin Restaurant during the time we owned it and we were always delighted to see her and lovely friends. She was a very refined lady with a wonderful sense of humor. Steve and Elisa Danz

I grew up in Matoaca and Matoaca Baptist Church and Ellen Purdue was an active part of children's programs. She and Andy were friends of my parents, Roy & Virginia Staples. I remember her visiting my father in Petersburg General Hospital in 2005 after a serious health event; she was a volunteer there and I was glad to have seen her after so many years. I remember thinking how great that she was remaining active and helping others. She was a gracious, classy lady and very kind. My deep sympathies to Bolling and Andy.
