It was three years ago that Ellen had the “plug pulled” after being in a coma for the previous three days. The ineffable sadness of the last three years has diminished over time, but for me, April is a month of deep reflection of what she meant to me during the eight years we were together. I will always remember her with a smile and tears. For those who knew and loved Ellen, please take a moment out of your day and reflect on what she meant to you and ponder the loss that cannot be replaced.
