Our dear mom, Eleanor Mae Berman (Wilmot), age 95 passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her loving family on July 24th, 2023. Ellie was preceded in death by her husband of 48 years, Ted J. Berman, brother, Dick Wilmot (Cape Coral), and her parents, Hardie and Frank B. Wilmot (Claridon Twp)
We will miss her, but she will live on in her children: Bruce J. (Arlene) Berman, Sandy B. (Tom) Wadsworth, Tim J (Terri) Berman, Ted Robert (Debbie) Berman, Robert Alan (Nicole) Berman. Grandchildren: Kelly, David, Bryan, Brad, Craig, Chase, Daniel, Houston (deceased), Dillon, Hannah, Larry, and Alex. Ellie is also survived by her sister, Joan Stewart, and brother, Dave Wilmot and 15 Great Grandchildren
Born in Cleveland, she moved to Chardon in 1975. Mom and dad loved their time at their summer getaway on Marblehead and their adventures cruising The Great Lakes. You could also find her at her grandchildren’s sporting events where she helped the referees do their jobs. In late years she enjoyed spending the winter months at her home on Pine Island, Florida with her sister Joan.
We will always remember her as a beautiful, strong-willed but tender mom who showed great passion for her family and country. Ellie loved her country, current events, politics, and talking about them. She loved life and was an inspiration to all lucky enough to know her.
Friends may join the family for A Celebration of Life to be held from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM on Wed. August 2nd at Generations Reception and Party Center 12809 Chillicothe Rd, Chesterland, Oh 44026.
