Elli was born in Marburg, Germany on October 22, 1924 to Nikolaus and Elisabeth Korell. She loved her children, grandchildren, nature, animals (especially her dogs), traveling, dancing and had lots and lots of friends. After a long and courageous battle against a variety of illnesses, God granted her the peaceful end to a life lived with goodness, grace, and dignity. Elli was a dignified, compassionate, kind, and strong lady who lived by example. We thank God for the time He allowed us to share with her. She has touched our hearts and lives forever. She wasn't one in a million, she was and will always be our one and only.
