Ellie is also survived by 12 nieces and nephews. We remember her as one of our Associates.  Ellie was very, very active in the Associate Program and was a leader n the Eastern Region.  It was rare that on a holiday or special occasion the Sisters at Rosary Manor (Watertown) would not be partaking in some of Ellie's wonderful homemade treats.  A Funeral Mass will be celebrated in Saint John's Church on Saturday, November 19, 2005.
