Thank you for your service to both country and community. Officer Ellis is my husband's great uncle, he is also a Captain with the Wilson County Sheriff's department and God willing will be able to retire in a year and a half. Officer Ellis was taken way too soon.

Officer Ellis,
On today, the 81st anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your community, but also for our Country when you served during WW I.

Officer Ellis was my mother's eldest brother. We still speak of him. She remembers his death vividly. She is the last surviving sibling of 13 children.

Each day I try to read the ODMP. Today I read your story. Any officer who dies in the line of duty will always be remembered for his sacrifice. You died a hero. Rest in peace Officer Ellis.

Officer Ellis....there is a deputy in Ohio that says exactly what I feel with the ODMP....no officer should be without a reflection. Thank you for your service & God bless.
