Sweet cousins Prayers for you and your loved ones as you go through this season of loss and sadness . Special memories of Aunt Ellie stay forever in the hearts of those who loved her and shared so many moments with her. It was your mom and dad who introduced me and phil, so , " Thanks alot, Aunt Ellie, we'll talk when next we meet!" lol My mom always called me Ellie, for some reason. I never got mad, just answered her anyway and laughed it off. She was one of a kind and Phil and I were really happy to be with mom, Aunt Connie and Gracie, today, as we remembered times shared ,stories told and listening to the Live stream as you honored your mom. Much love, Cousin Linda

Aunt Ellie Where do I begin...my earliest memories are being on Columbia Street and hanging in your bedroom. Then you and Uncle Fred babysitting for us when you were dating and my dad catching the 2 of you making out after we were asleep or so you thought. My greatest privilege was being a junior bridesmaid in your wedding with Gracie. Then it was my weekly visits to your apartment and climbing all those stairs. Then Christina was born and you were never getting rid of me. You were my confidant as I got older and I will love you forever but my favorite memory is when Uncle Pat told you about the telephone pole farm. Love you. Dance with Jesus and sing Hallelujah at the top of your lungs.

I will never forget you! Your kindness and the love you have so freely was needed more than you know! Or, knowing you, you probably did know. Thank you for being there for me! I know you are with Jesus right now! ???

My dearest Aunt Ellie I will always cherish and remember you. You drew me an angel once just sitting at the counter in my kitchen down the shore. She still hangs on my refrigerator there and i always think of you when i see her. Your art always will stay with me. Your garage was a canvas for you, I loved that. Rest in peace Love ❤️ Kathy

I'm so sorry to hear Aunt Ellie passed. She was such a fun loving soul who always greeted everyone with a great big "Hellllo My Love" and she always gave us a good laugh that's for sure. She will be greatly missed. Sending love and prayers to all who loved Aunt Ellie! Rest in heavenly peace Bella. ?❤️
