Ivy ELLIS Obituary

On Tuesday, November 19, 2024, our dear Mum, having been so strong for so long, slipped gently away to join Dad in time for their 72nd wedding anniversary. She (our Mum Ivy) was the beloved wife of Dad, the late Stan for nearly 70 years. Much loved, and deeply missed Mum of Bruce, Rod and Sue, Mark and Anne, Kathy and Tony, Joanne and Swampy, Steve and Gen, Stella, Ray and Annie. Fun-loving and loved Nana and Great-Nana to her many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Many thanks to the staff at Palm Grove Rest Home and Retirement Village for their compassion and care of our Mum. Her funeral service will be held at our Westpark Chapel, 467 Wairakei Road, Burnside, on Tuesday, November 26, at 10.00am, followed by interment in Memorial Park Cemetery.

"A gracious and loving woman of faith."

My deepest sympathy to you all. I have fond memories of Ivy, during the short time I knew you. It was a privilege to look after such a loving and pleasant, humorous lady. Thinking of you during this sad time.
My condolences to you all the family.
Love from a past worker from Palm Grove.

A wonderful Christian lady has passed into Eternity to be with her Lord and Saviour. Ivy was my "spiritual mother" since I was 16 years old. I have 53 years of very
special memories tucked away in my heart. I will be forever grateful for her love, care and guidance. Rest in peace precious lady. Sorry I cannot be there. I am in Australia at the moment. Will be thinking of you all.

Dear Anne, Rodney, Bruce and Catherine. I´m so sad to hear of Ivy´s passing. Your dad Stan and my dad Dave were close friends before either of them married and when they were boys growing up in New Brighton. We spent many times with you all when Mum (Joyce) and dad (David) were still married and you lived in Pages Road and Arahura. I don´t know if you remember Catherine but we caught up at the retirement home when my husband´s mum was there. My thoughts and love are with you all. Cheryl Manhart, daughter of David (Dave) Manhart and Joyce. If any of you would like to keep in touch my number is 0275622161.
