Ellen Neel in 1965

I just had to post this photo. I’m pretty sure it was one of the few photo’s I saw of my grandmother as I was growing up. It looks as though it was taken on a BC Ferries Ferry.

this picture is taken on the boat from kelsey bay, I think, on the way to her fathers funeral. That would make it earlier
it may have been Mungo’s funeral

she would have been 48 years old there if it is 1965

My family has some photos of the Neels. Edward, is my great Uncle. My grandmother is his sister Amy.

Since my father passed away in October, my sister is scanning in all of his photos. I’m not sure what she has, but I’d be happy to pass along any photos of Ellen and Ted when they are ready.

This is a beautiful shot.
