Our dearest, sweetest Ellie,

From the moment you and Deanna met, you were more than friends, you were sisters. You became a true member of our family. We always knew we loved you, and now, from the depth of the pain we feel for losing you, we have no doubt you were a part of us. If tears could bring you back, you’d be here. 

We have a treasure trove of memories: trips, crafts-gone-wrong, funny dances, silly pictures, laughs and most importantly, your beautiful spirit to hold on to. You were and continue to be loved immeasurably.  

Pat, Darcie and Cole, your grief is unimaginable. Please know that countless prayers and love are sent your way and you are not alone. 

With love always, 

The Junods
