Elle was born in Dayton on July 19, 1984, to Cheryl and Bill and lived almost her entire life in Greater Dayton. She was a graduate of Fairmont High School where her mother was a school counselor. With an eye for art, Elle's passions included tie-dyed clothes and "princess" shoes with sparkles. Elle's handcrafted needlepoint coasters became quite popular in the family, as no gathering was complete without an offer to pick a favorite color.
Elle loved every dog that graced the family. Buster, Bear, and Chloe were constant companions and confidants — they kept her secrets, and she kept theirs. She also claimed a special talent for asking Mother Nature for snow during the winter months she loved so dearly.
Even more importantly, Elle had a special place in the hearts of her aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews, many of whom were lucky enough to get regular calls from her for quick catch-ups and the latest gossip. Elle's vibrant spirit would always make you laugh, and her tell-it-like-it-is attitude would always keep you grounded.
She moved last September to Hugh House, a group home with three lovely women her age. Over the last year, Elle spent her days working at Better Living putting together boxes for a client. She enjoyed working and earning her own money to satisfy her shopping addiction, which runs in the family. She also looked forward to spending Tuesdays at We Care Arts, a supportive program that helped Elle express her creativity through art.
A Mass celebrating Elle's life will be held at St Leonard's Chapel in Centerville on Monday, September 19, 2022, at 10:30 a.m. The family will greet family and friends a half hour before Mass.
