Ella A. Conn, of Pompton Plains NJ, passed away peacefully on November 7, 2010.

She was born Raffaella Nardino on October 25, 1928 in Garfield NJ, one of six children.

She graduated from Garfield High School in 1936, and through talent and a love of theatre, became a professional dancer for various stage productions around the United States.

After leaving the world of dance, she worked in the music publishing industry, where she met Jack Conn, who she would marry in 1960.  She became a single parent after the sudden passing of her husband, and did a wonderful job of raising her son Brian.

Throughout the years, she enjoyed being on her bowling team, cooking, her family, trips to Florida, California and the occasional Mets game at Shea Stadium.

Ella is survived by her son, sister, many nieces and nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews, her “grand-cat”, and all the friends and family that she touched in her time with us.

Special thanks to her extended family at Cedar Crest Village and Renaissance Gardens, and the caring staff at Chilton Hospital.

Memorial contributions may be made to the Cedar Crest Benevolent Fund, 1 Cedar Crest Village Dr., Pompton Plains NJ  07444.
