Our family would like to express our deepest gratitude to Haines EMS, Dr. Wendell and the SEARHC staff, U.S. Coast Guard and Guardian flight crew for their emergency response to our beloved family member, Ellen Maureen Rasmussen. Ellen went on to her heavenly home on Sept. 21, 2020. We are grateful to her current and former caregivers who became a part of our family and so enriched Ellen’s life experience.

Thank you to Haines and Klukwan Community and church families for their embrace and inclusion that Ellen could count on throughout her life.

Greg, Marianne, Gus and Marnie Rasmussen
