Born in Powhatan, Va., on April 25, 1933. She was preceded in death by her parents, John and Carrie Wells; and her beloved husband of 50 years, James Walker. She is survived by her devoted daughter, Susan Cole Patterson (John), son, James "Tony" Walker; loving granddaughter, Carrie Nowlan (Chris); four great-grandchildren, and the apples of her eye, Peyton Romer, Hadley Nowlan, Grant Nowlan and little Tanner Nowlan. Ellen's surviving siblings are Lottie Morton, Alice Murdock and Kate Siets; and many other loving extended family members. Special remembrance to two life long devoted friends, Marsha Englert and Pam Campen, whom she loved as sisters. Ellen was an exceptional athlete, playing AAA Women's Softball for the Short Pump Battalionettes, and helped lead them to many championships. Her professional career spanned 38 years with the State of Virginia, retiring as Lead Systems Engineer, working directly with the Governor and State Police. She and Jimmy fulfilled their dream of retiring to Gwynn's Island, and spent 25 years enjoying a charmed life of fishing, gardening, bowling and fellowship with dear friends. As members of Gwynn's Island Baptist Church, she could always be found cooking up meals in the church kitchen, and visiting those who needed a helping hand. Her boundless energy, love of life and family, and finding joy in even the smallest of things, made her a treasured gift to all who were fortunate to know and love her. Our precious little shining star burns brightly in Heaven now. Never to be forgotten and always in our hearts. Graveside services to be held at Gwynn's Island Cemetery, Gwynn's Island, Va., on February 4, 2017, at 11 a.m. Refreshments and fellowship to follow at Gwynn's Island Baptist Church.
