I met Ella when we were both volunteering at Oakville Fareshare Foodbank many years ago and our friendship grew from then on. One day Ella asked me if I wanted to take golf lessons with her so that started our weekly golf games for several years. Another time Ella said "do you want to take adult education computer lessons?" so that led to our still limited knowledge of the the computer. But we always enjoyed our time together especially our coffees at Tims where on many occasions her Air Canada friends joined us. We always had so much to say.....

A lovely person both inside and out. I will miss her very much!

Rest in peace my dear friend.
