Ellen Besse....The celebrity of the class of 62!  I was amazed by her beauty.  I did not have the pleasure of knowing her, however, I love all of my school mates.  I send condolences and blessings to her family.

I shared a locker with Ellen one year at South.  She was the most messy and disorganized person I'd ever met!  But she was just a doll with a wonderful sense of humor and so fun to be around.  I'm shocked and very sorry to learn of her passing...
