My eyes filled with tears- Reading these eloquent words- what an amazing young man your son is because of course he lives on. I am here at Andover my spouse is the head of school I wish I would have known your son but we didn't arrive until the fall of 2020. What an incredible swimmer what a brave child and young man -a determined passionate human being. You are so right when you say that he lived more In his life than most of us to do. May His memory be eternal.

Our deepest condolences and sympathy. I remember how hard Ellis worked to achieve and always do his best in schoolwork or swimming or any endeavor he tackled. He was bright and determined to accomplish whatever task he set before him. I knew Ellis both as a former student and a wonderful young man. He was always so composed and thoughtful. He will be missed by all who knew him but will live on in the many wonderful memories he leaves behind. Christine Sanders
