All of us who knew Ellie, in real life and virtually, are heavy with grief as we learn that she passed from this world on Wednesday, June 21, after a remarkable life that touched so many of our hearts. We invite you to contribute to this fund to allow her Rebecca and family to grieve for and remember Ellie without worrying about the costs of basic wants for the funeral or the coming weeks and months. We know that there will be no more documenting Ellie’s sparkly eyes on her adventures, her sassy “Bye, Felicia” from the backseat of the van, and her Rupert and brother cuddles but we want her essence to keep shining.May Ellie’s memory be a blessing. Her life, her trials, and her legacy have meant so much to us—we hope this money allows those closest to sit and to celebrate Ellie’s life in the ways that bring them the most comfort.
