Ellis was well known and respected by the Greenwood Springs/Hamilton community. He was a charter member of the Hamilton Baptist Church where he worshipped and raised his family in the faith. 

Prior to retirement, he was a hardworking farmer and owner/operator of the Hamilton Country Club. After retiring, he could be found working in his shop or spoiling his great-grands. Ellis wasn’t having fun unless his playful teasing of the kids made them cry—even so, they always came back for more! He was also known for his keen ability to haggle a car salesman until he got the price that he wanted.
