He was the former owner and operator of Christian County Door and Glass and a member of Highland Presbyterian Church.
A man of many interests, he was a 60’s and 70’s rock enthusiast and a sports fanatic. He especially loved the thrill of NHRA drag racing or a quiet day at the lake fishing. He also spent countless hours working in his shop, where he could fix or create anything his hands set to work on.
In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by a brother, Michael Ellis.
