Ellen B. "Nell" White

Ellen “Nell” White née Whelan born in Rathgormack, Co. Waterford, Ireland, age 75, of Orland Park passed suddenly.

Loving mother of Deirdre (Steve) Jones, Niamh (Chris) Poole and Thomas White. Proud grandmother of Skyla Marie, Madison Kathleen, Mikayla Clare and Vivian Ray.
Dearest sister of Breeda, Tom, Jenny, William, Cathy, Mary, Cora, Matt and Bernie. Former spouse of Patrick White.
Preceded in death by her parents Thomas and Crissie Whelan.

Ellen was a selfless soul who loved dancing, flowers, gardening, and her Irish heritage. She dedicated her life to being a nurse and taking care of people. Her greatest joy was spoiling her grandkids. She was taken from us too soon and will be missed dearly.
