Dear Chuck and family, I am so sorry for the loss of your father, husband and grandfather. I didn't know Mr. Ellis, but I do know that he raised some good kids. May you have peace in your heart and good memories to help you get through this time of grief.

I had the pleasure of being Nathan's co-worker at the Hialeah JFK Library. He was a joy to be around; always full of stories and good humor. Love and condolences to Carolyn and the entire family.
