"Larry, Elliott, Jo Ann, and family -- We were saddened to hear of the passing of Aunt Ellie. The Seago family was blessed to have her in our lives and very grateful that she loved our Uncle Howard as she did for many years. Being one of the oldest nieces, I remember the day they were married and was fortunate to be present for their 25th Anniversary when they renewed their vows. The years that would come to pass for them were a true test of the greatest love of all, a love that surpasses all understanding, and gave Aunt Ellie the strength she needed. I'm sure she was welcomed at Heaven's gate by many loved ones. As I've said too many times before, there is surely a celebration in Heaven again as many loved ones are once again reunited by the common thread of Aunt Ellie. Love to you all -- Susan Seago King, daughter of Walter and Mary Jo Seago, and mother of Van Taylor King. May their spirits rest in the peace we all await here on earth."

"I am so sad Ms. Ellie is gone from this earth but praise Jesus she is walking the streets of gold with our heavenly father. I will always remember Ms. Ellie telling me how much she wished she had my hair. I always told her I would give it to her in a heart beat! Love that precious lady. Church won't be the same without seeing her beautiful smiling face. My thoughts and prayers are with sweet JoAnn and the rest of the family. All my love, Kimberli Koehler"
