Ellie was the mother of Barb, Susan, George and Teresa. She had 11 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren. One of her favorite things to do in her later years was cuddling with her great grandchildren.
Ellie loved to knit and crochet, especially baby items. She loved watching the Seattle Mariners on tv, and she absolutely loved reruns of Bonanza and the Big Valley on television. She loved watching her grandson Nick play baseball.
Ellie loved tending to her plants, her favorites were African Violets and Christmas Cactuses.
Ellie loved going for car rides and going to the casino once in a while. She was very lucky!
She loved bright colors, especially purple and pink.
Ellie loved action movies with Jean Claude Van Damme, and Clint Eastwood movies. Her family always got a chuckle because she always called him East Clintwood, she never could get the name right.
Her favorite dog was Barb’s chocolate lab Kobi. The dog was always by her side, and hopefully she is by her side now looking down on her family.
She will be greatly missed by her family and friends, but they are at peace knowing she is no longer suffering.
