Sorry to hear that Ellen has passed away. My mom, Jean Wilson lived across the street at 75 Covington and she & Ellen used to have a lot of chatting time on mom’s front porch. She also loved her pound cake. We have been able to visit her a few times at the nursing home. We missed seeing her this year mom spent some time in the hospital while we were up there. She is now blind. May God give you peace and confort.
