>> MARY ELLIS OBITUARY <<

Mary Lou lived with a smile on her face, joy in her spirit, love in her
heart and music in her soul. Her zest and appreciation for life was
contagious as her life was filled with so many happy family memories.
She spent her first day in heaven on 12/5/22 after a long battle with
cancer.

Born April 18th, 1938, to Michael and Lillian Jacobs in St Cloud
Minnesota. She grew up in the town of South Gate in Southern California.
She is survived by her loving husband Roger Ellis of 43 years. He was
the love of her life and she the love of his.

She enjoyed working in the medical profession, was a licensed LVN and
worked at several medical practices. She also had a catering business
which was inspired by her love of cooking. Mary Lou especially loved her
large family, parties, home decorating, her wonderful dog Bear, long
drives and good movies with popcorn.

She leaves behind 10 children, her daughters Sherry Gregoire, Lori
Sanchez, Lindy Collins, Shelly Smith, Kathy Ellis, Dorie Walker, Patty
Rodriguez and her sons Steven Gregoire, Michael Gregoire and Steve
Ellis. She was blessed with 20 grandchildren, 22 great grandchildren and
2 great-great grandchildren.

A memorial gathering will be held at a later date to celebrate her
amazing life.

Services were entrusted to the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home.
