I was the executive director of the greenfield housing authority in greenfield, ma. Ellen was our self-sufficiency coordinator. In that position she had a positive impact on so many people in our community. Her ability to network and engage with people was one of her many fine characteristics. We felt a deep loss when she retired.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
