    The pain one feels of loss is equal or greater to the love one had for someone....therefore I know anyone who knew Ellen, even for a short time, feels great pain for she was a great woman. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

    My heart goes out to Ellen's family. I knew Ellen through the pharmaceutical sciences program and pharmacy school at Campbell. She was such a genuine, fun loving, happy go lucky person and miss seeing her. God bless.
