Ellen Marie Curtis (Cousineau) passed away peacefully on March 3, 2024, in Grand Rapids, MI, at the age of 73.

She was born on December 2, 1950, in Reed City, MI, to Raymond and Orilla (Maxine) Cousineau. Ellen was a devoted wife to her late husband, Jerry Ray Curtis, and a loving mother to her daughter, Sarah McBean, and son, J.R. Curtis. She adored her grandchildren, Kyle, Alexis, and Aaron McBean.

Ellen dedicated her life to serving others as a Registered Nurse, working in hospitals, nursing homes, and home health care. Her compassionate nature and exceptional skills led her to leadership positions, although she always cherished direct patient care. Ellen's commitment to helping others extended beyond her career, as she was known for her selflessness and generosity to her family and friends.

Outside of her professional life, Ellen found joy in worshiping and serving God and spending time in the kitchen, cooking for her loved ones.

In honoring Ellen's wishes, there will be no Funeral Service. A small Graveside gathering will take place in the Spring for her urn burial alongside her beloved husband, Jerry.

Ellen will be deeply missed by her surviving brother, Randy Cousineau and wife Kay, as well as her family and friends. Her legacy of kindness, dedication, and love will continue to inspire all those who were fortunate enough to know her.

May she rest in peace, reunited with her Forever Love, Jerry, in Heaven.
