We loved this sweet God fearing couple. They were in our Sunday School class when they were in town during the winter. Ellen will be missed.
I just learned of Ellen’s passing, and I extend my sympathy to all of her family, and especially
to Leroy. My late husband, Robert (Bob) Beckley and I have known both Ellen and Leroy since
they were members of First Presbyterian, Canyon, where Robert was organist. I had not
seen either of them in recent years, but was always glad to see them on the occasions when
I did. Ellen was a sweet and thoughtful person. I know you will miss her, but we all look
forward to seeing her again.
With caring thoughts,
Cheryl Beckley
Ellen’s family,
I was sad to hear of Ellen’s death. She was a dear friend in PEO, and we had the honor of becoming 50 year members the same year. I still make her “Orange or Apricot marmalade Muffins” and think of her each time. Your mother was a lovely and dear person. I send sincere condolences.
