Last night we just happened to be looking at the “Between the Arrows” video that Karen had sent from the Archives. There was Ellen in her navy blue suit and elegant white hat looking so young. She was one of the actors telling our stories in that 2000 Millenium Connection finale. Ellen was creative, elegant, insightful, enthusiastic, committed, and all with a beautiful smile. When she and David came East to be close to Johns Hopkins Hospital and Peter’s dear Charlie and Anna, she still carried herself with poise and dignity and her sharp intellect. Our Baltimore Washington House Church group appreciated Ellen and David bringing Climate Justice to us in an urgent way. Somehow she was stronger than the disease that had overtaken her body. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1F497D'>We are grateful for her dedication to the Order.
