Ellen Ann Kelley

Ellen graduated from Eastside High School in 1964, and then attended one year at Fairleigh-Dickenson College. She then worked in secretarial and accounting in New Jersey.

After meeting her future husband, she relocated to Pendleton, IN and became a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

Ellen was a member of Pendleton Baptist Church, where she sang in their choir, and volunteered for Gateway Association for a number of years. She liked to draw, write poetry, read, and study her Bible, but she especially loved to spend time with her family.

Also, surviving are many other extended family members.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Edward and Alba James.
