Eleanor “Ellie” C. Meverden age 82, of Two Rivers, WI died in the morning of September 24, 2020 at Watertown Health Care Center due to Covid-19 complications.
Ellie was born on February 10, 1938 in Chicopee, Massachusetts, a daughter to the late Catherine M. (Maziarz) Thomas.
She was baptized at the Church of Santo Christo in Fall River, received her First Holy Communion and was Confirmed at St. Patrick’s Church in Chicopee Falls. Ellie graduated from Chicopee High School in 1956. Family and friends in Chicopee remained in her heart throughout her life.
On February 14, 1958 she married James W. Meverden in Enfield, CT. Together they moved to DePere, WI and also lived briefly in Clintonville and Middleton. In the end, Ellie and Jim built their lives in Two Rivers.
She held many jobs throughout her life but found working at Prange Way and J.C. Penny to be a source of wonderful friendships and lasting memories. While she cherished her friends, and relatives, Ellie found her roles of mother and grandmother to be most rewarding. She felt immense pride for her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchild.
Ellie was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2015 and moved to Brookdale Assisted Living in Stevens Point, WI. The family would like to express sincere gratitude to the staff and friends at Brookdale and to special friend Kim Nowak, for their love, care, and compassion.
Ellie’s faith was the foundation of all aspects of her life. Ellie interacted with the world through warmth, strength, bravery, empathy, humanity, and with a soft spoken demeanor. Her selfless compassion and kindness towards others filled many people with the incredible joy she felt for life.
Ellie will be lovingly remembered by her three children: Jim (Kitty) Meverden of Appleton, Debra (Jay) Gordon of Nelsonville and Daniel (Diane) Meverden of Aurora, CO; her five grandchildren and great-grandchild, Matthew Meverden, Amy (Brian) Meverden, Taylor Gordon, Rachel Gordon, Maddison Meverden, Aria Meverden; sister Shirley Thompson; brother Joseph (Marie) Thomas; sister-in-law Ruth Cichocki; nieces, nephews, and cousins.
