It is with a heavy heart that I just found out that Ells passed away last Thursday. I am unsure of the circumstances as of now but will let you know when I know more.

Goodbye buddy. May the roads have plenty of twists.

Such sad news Joel,......I had the pleasure of chatting with him in Custer.
My condolences to his wife and family. Never know what to say in these cases.

My prayers and condolences to the family. Hadn't seen Ells much on here for the last year or more. I wondered if he had stopped riding. Ells was a heck of a nice guy. RIP

Sorry to hear this, Rest in Peace Ells.

I would like to share this.

I am free

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following paths God made for me
I took his hand, I heard him call
Then turned, and bid farewell to all

I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to sing, to play
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I found my peace ... at close of play

And if my parting left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss
Ah yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened... deep with sorrow
I wish you sunshine of tomorrow
My life's been full I've savoured much
Good friends, good times
A loved one's touch

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts and peace to thee
God wanted me now
He set me free.

Oh my... really sorry to hear this. I met him in Custer. Seemed like a really nice person.

Life can be short...

I was beginning to wonder about him, he hadn't been on here in quite a while. He and I had a long conversation in Cortez two years ago. I'm sorry to hear this and offer my condolences to his family.
