To Ellens Family,
I send my condolenances for your loss.
I will miss sending Ellen messeges online, and
talking with her on the phone.
this is so sad, and hard to understand why, she left
so soon. I will pray for her everyday, that God gives
hereternal Rest and Happiness. Take care Ellen, my Dear friend.
To Ellen’s parents, Coleman & other family & friends,
My deepest condolences to each of you in the loss of Ellen. My heart is heavy learning of her passing. I so enjoyed my visits with Ellen on the phone & sending her things on line. I had worked with Ellen @ Sheridan VA. We had started there the same year, did many things outside the VA. She was a dear friend. May she have now found peace and happiness. Rest In Peace dear friend.
I have just found out of this tragic news of Ellen gone too soon. I have known Ellen since 1978-79 working for her as my supervisor at LLBergers in Buffalo WE became fast friends I was studying nursing and moved to Denver after graduation She soon relocated to Denver and soon after pursued her nursing career. We raised our children together attended all our special family functions many holidays and birthdays. WE were there for each other for good bad and in between our life events She relocated to Wyoming to pursue her career but we never lost touch She met Robert whom we met and attended his daughters wedding in Vegas Then tragedy struck Robert and impacted Ellen so hard I don’t think she ever recovered from his loss Recently i lost my dad in Buffalo and she said IM here in Rochester i can be there in one hour but she was unable to come but talked with me frequently reminiscing of good times with my family. I loved her so much my heart is splitting in a million pieces I send love and condolences to her parents sibs boys and grandson as well as Roberts family who knew and loved her as well If there is anything I can help with please call me I live in Vegas now 702-353-5653 Luv u Spaz xoxo
Prayers of comfort for all those who knew and loved Ellen. We chatted on fb pm and by phone after she left the VA. She was always so cheerful and happy after her and her soulmate, Robert got together. Then they had their puppy. It was a beautiful family. I will deeply miss our chats. I would love to share a memory of her with all of you. It was spring and I was walking back to my department on the sidewalk as she was coming my direction. We stopped to talk for a short as always, just to catch up. Facing each other, talking with about 2 foot apart, a bird flew over and crapped and it landed right between us on the ground. Both of us looked up then down then at each other and laughed so hard! We were lucky that day! She was an amazing woman. God surely got an Angel added to the heavens.
Dear Ellen, thankyou for your love,friendship and wisdom. Thankyou for your devoted service in the care of our honorable Veterans! Your laughter will remain in my heart and spirit! .Please say hello to Robert for me. You can now dance, barefoot in the clouds together, forever. “ No pessimist ever discovered the secrets of the stars, sailed to an uncharted land,or opened a new heaven to the human spirit!”…. Helen Keller…. I will always love you… Love Frenchy❤️
Ellen, thank you for your friendship, stories, and especially your hugs. After my Dad passed away, you made sure to find me every day, even when I moved to another department, and give me a hug, and it was always returned. It truly meant a great deal to me. One of my favorite stories of you is when a LPN and I were in the tramway, and saw you walking between Building 8 and 86. We called your name out the window and ducked down about five times. You kept looking around to see where your name was coming from, and said, “Where are you?” We finally showed ourselves, and we all had a great laugh. You were amazing. I will hold you in my heart and memories forever, my friend. I hope you found the peace you deserve, and are flying high in Heaven with Robert. I love you.
I am shocked and saddened to hear of Ellen’s passing. I worked with her on the medical unit at the Sheridan VA. She always supported me and helped me shape my nursing career to be the nurse I am today. I remember her telling me of the hollyhocks that she loved to see and smell as she drove down Monaco parkway in Denver, CO while she was attending school. She always had great stories, was smart, devoted to her work, and the veterans. When I moved away, to Denver, she wrote me a reference letter and I will always treasure that.

To Ellen’s family….I worked with Ellen at the Sheridan VA and she was the most loving and caring individual. She was not only a friend, but a mentor. She shared her knowledge and nursing expertise with all of us. She also gave credit and gratitude to those who deserved it. She was very special to me, and she is missed. Peace be with you, Ellen and family. God Bless.
