To the Hamill Family: I worked with Ellen for a year in the training department at Baxter. I truly enjoyed her caring personality and she was so kind to me. We worked together well and I am glad to have known her. I am very sorry for your loss and may Ellen find peace. Jason Mannos

I will forever hold Ellen close in my heart and mind. She was a wonderful person with a gentle and loving spirit. She always met me with a smile and embraced me with a hug. She never missed an opportunity to share her feelings about Jimmy. She LOVED Jimmy so deeply and was so very proud of him. I loved working on special projects with Ellen, it gave us time to "mom talk". I know that she is at peace now. I pray that peace will find it's way to those that so deeply grieve and miss her.
