Rest in Peace Mr. Ellis. We loved all your ghost stories at 5th Grade Camp and I loved the Teddy Bear Towel holder you made for me and my family. You were a wonderful teacher. Thoughts and Prayers to Mr. Ellis's Family.

Charlotte and family, Paul was a blessing and pleasure to be around. I still think of him when we play pinochle and am always quoting things he would say. Also, I'll never forget a party I had, Paul came to tell ghost stories. I was scared out of my mind. A great an humble man, he'll be missed. Rosalea Vogler

My deepest sympathy to the Ellis family. I had Mr. Ellis as my teacher in 6th grade, he lived in our subdivision and my dad knew him from Sears. He was one of my favorite teachers, had a good heart and really cared about all his students.

I taught with Paul at Parkwood. He was a good man who was much admired by his students. I hope your many memories of good times will bring comfort to you.

He was my teacher during the '81-'82 school year. We were playing a game show kinda thing one day, and I was one of four contestants. Everyone cheered for the first three, but when my name was called no one made a sound. I was horrified. Mr Ellis stood up and went off on the class for doing that to me. I was able to sit up a little straighter. I will always remember him for that.

My deepest sympathy to all the Ellis family especially Charlotte who I worked with at Bussmann's many years ago. Donald Smith
