I taught with Ella in Detroit. What an amazing person and educator. Detroit Public Schools lost a great asset when she returned to Florida. Florida gained a precious gem.

My condolences to the family. Ella and I went to Detroit the same year and taught at the same school. She was one of my first friends, had our bay boys together, and we remained friends until the angels escorted her to her eternal resting place. Alan, your mom was a beautiful and special person who loved you to no end. We´ve gone through some times together but we always came through. May you find peace and comfort knowing that she is safe in the arms of her Father. Take your time to heal knowing that memories and smiles are forever. I am here if you ever need me. Love all of you. God is good.
