With our deepest sympathy to the family of Ellen Maverick Dickson upon her passing. Although we did not know Ellen, we feel an inexplicable tie to the Maverick family, having owned and lived in the old Maverick home on E. Sunshine for the last 40 plus years. Occasionally we have met a couple of you who have stopped by to chat on the front porch with us or take a peak inside at the same old rock walls and wood floors where you spent time. Our family, including children, grandchildren, and now great grandchildren have greatly enjoyed our years playing in the spacious front yard, relaxing on the peaceful porch, working in the garden, and hosting many family gatherings within those great rock walls that your family built. As we have aged more now, we know that it is time for our years on this great property to come to and end we plan to sell the property in the soon upcoming months and move on to smaller quarters and closer to family. We wish you all the best and are grateful for our years on East Sunshine and sharing a wonderful property that was a part of your family. Sincerely, Ed & Helen Luckey, & family

Thinking of you all. Your mom was special to all of us in the Jockusch family--always interested in us, engaging, and so full of life. I will miss her.

Sincerest condolences to the family; the passing of an icon. Such a lovely, dignified woman who has treasured, and clearly been treasured by, her family.

I remember Ellen since I was a young boy. I remember being with the group who took Ellen, my grandmother, Agatha Welsh, and my sister, Melba Welsh, to the San Antonio airport for their trip to Europe in about 1951 or '52..... when she married Al in Florence. She was a dear person. Norval John Ellsworth Welsh, III (youngest sibling of Melba, Jane, and Agnes Welsh & grandchild of Agatha Welsh)
