Ellen was born on August 26, 1955 to her loving parents, Daniel and Dolores Winter. Shortly after graduating high school, Ellen met her soulmate, Robert Schulz. Ellen and Robert were inseparable and their love for each other is infinite. Ellen enjoyed traveling, cooking, crocheting, trips to the casino and spending time with the ones she loved the most. 

Ellen was a kind and generous soul who always put others before herself. Her family and friends will remember her as “Nonny”, “Toots”, and “Twinnie”. They will also remember her warm smile, her gentle nature, and her unwavering love. Ellen was a nurturing soul who was always cracking jokes and reminding others to see the glass half full.
