    I met Ellen when my husband and I joined First Baptist. I will never forget Ellen's kindness and Godly love toward us and everyone she met. Her gentle demeanor and soft, sweet, cheerful voice were so comforting to us. I know she's at Home, but I also know the void she leaves with you and with every life she graced. May God bless and comfort you as you walk this path of grief. And thank you for sharing her with my family. We loved her. Kim, Scott, Alex, and Christian Douglas
