I am so very saddened to learn of Ellie's passing. I think of her and Bill often and have not seen either for several years. We met when I was caring for her parents many many years ago, in their home on Elizabeth Street in Tripp Park. She was a wonderful daughter, and person.
She'll be missed I am sure.
