I love Ella so much I can’t even describe it. She is the most caring , inviting and comforting person I have ever known. She was the best person to talk to if you needed someone. She was also fun to goof around with and laugh. I loved to make her laugh. Her smile made my heart smile. She was the best in the kitchen. She taught me how to be strong. She is my speacial person and I will love her forever unitl I see her again one day and I can’t wait.

I love you my dear heart,

Love Jessica (Catsenyammer)

Ella was an amazing lady. The twinkle in her eye even though you know she had to be in pain. A sharp memory and quick wit. She was on tough strong woman. She really appreciated all the help and caring from her friends and family. I missed her but I know she is more comfortable now.
