"Ellie" Eleanor Frazetta has passed, Saturday, July 18, 2009
"My dear friend and mentor, Ellie Frazetta has died from cancer. Ellie was strong and fought hard over many months.
I am fortunate to have known her for many years. She shared her story and life, and my life practically unfolded through the many phone conversations, and those very few in person talks.
My prayers for her spirit and for her immediate family.
Her strength and words of wisdom and inspiration will continue to guide me throughout my life."
