Dear David I was so sorry to hear Ellen had passed. It seemed like only yesterday she was telling me about that wonderful trip you took to Peru and how thrilling it was. It was at Karyn and Jerrys house that I last saw her and wished her a good health recovery. Our thoughts are with you and your lovely family...God Bless.. David & Carol Dahl

David,
I haven't called as I knew you needed some space right now. I am so sorry. Ellen was a beautiful, wonderful, and kind person. You described it perfectly in the obit. It's amazing what both of us have endured in our lifetimes. I know G-D gives us what we can handle. Sometimes I wonder... I will always be here for you and always be your friend.
Love and Kisses,
Sheila Chalfie
