Ella embraced life with a kindness and generosity that knew no bounds. She was an amazing mother, homeroom mom for her children’s’ classes as well as a member of many community service projects including the LTEF and several organizations that directly benefited women in business. She felt she was put on this earth to help others, and there wasn’t a day in her life—even while fighting cancer—that she wasn’t doing something to help someone else. Ella was proof that kindness can spread like wildfire. She provided the spark. Her love for her community and fellow man has led to the development of this scholarship in her honor. The student who best embodies the spirit of giving, service and love for the community will receive this prestigious award.
