Message from the President
Hello my fellow Ellers!
I hope you are all doing well. It is Spring Break season here in Texas.
God has blessed us with glorious weather all week. The temperatures
have been in the 70s during the daytime and in the 50s at night. The
clear blue skies remind me of my growing up years in Arizona. I have
enjoyed sleeping with the windows open. No heating or air-conditioning
necessary.
Next week I will be visiting my dad, Verlie Eller, out in Arizona. I am
hoping for some equally glorious weather there. Dad has had a family of
ducks visiting in his pool. I imagine they will be heading back to their
northern home in a little while.
I hope you are planning to block off a few days in July to join us for our
Eller Family Association conference/reunion. It will be held in
Hiawassee, Georgia this year. We had hoped to go to Richmond, VA but
due to unforeseen circumstances we’ll be meeting in Georgia. The
information you will need for planning purposes is all here in this issue of
the Eller Chronicles.
I am looking forward to getting reacquainted with you and meeting
some new “cousins” in July! See you in a few months!
Your EFA President,
Lauren

Minutes of the Board of Directors Meeting
Dec 9, 2012
The Board of Directors of the Eller Family Association met via conference
call at 9:00 PM Eastern Time, Sunday, Dec 9, 2012. The following
members of the board were present: Lauren Liggett, President, Ed Eller,
Vice President, Director, Joe Eller, and Secretary/Treasurer Karen Pelzman.
The President called the meeting to order at 9:10 PM EST.
Karen is working on next year’s EFA Conference to be held in Richmond,
VA July 24 to 28, 2013. She is working on getting lower room costs.
Tom had asked about the balance of funds available for the DNA project.
The current balance is $1,358.00 of which $650.00 is budgeted and available
for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2013. An EFA member is considering
donating funds to the EFA to be used for DNA testing for members who
cannot afford the cost. Tom will follow up on this.
The National Genealogical Society has an annual Family History
Conference each year at different venues. They have various sessions you
can attend. Visit their website at NGSGENEALOGY.ORG for information.
This year is being held May 8-11 in Las Vegas.
Items are always needed for the Chronicles. Please forward articles to
Chronicles Editor Randy Poplin,
The meeting adjourned at approximately 9:30 PM EST.

…from the desk of the Secretary/Treasurer
Spring is finally almost here…and it’s my favorite time of the year!
I would like to thank Ed Eller for taking over the task of the EFA
Conference. I was not able to get it together in Richmond, VA and was
not able to handle the logistics from Colorado. At the time I offered to
handle the conference in Richmond, I was in Tennessee and it would
have been doable, but Colorado is a lot further away and I didn’t have
much luck finding a suitable venue.
Our family also suffered the loss of 2 more family members – Kevin
Cullen, the husband of our sister Mary Russelavage-Cullen passed away
in November and our cousin Vicki Lynn Clamp, whose mother Mary
Eller Clamp was the daughter of Cleveland A Eller of Ashe County, NC, a
descendant of George Michael Eller, passed away Dec 24th.

Verlie Lionel Eller’s 90th
Birthday Celebration (Photos contributed by Anna Marie Bliss)
Lauren Liggett, Kent Eller, Anna Marie Bliss, Ed Eller, Lois Hardy and Lionel Eller
Verlie Lionel is turning 90 years old and neither myself nor my sister Lauren
can remember dad ever having a birthday party. We had a 90th family
birthday party for Mom and then a 70th Wedding Anniversary celebration.
We wanted something different for dad. Someone was telling Pat, dad's
caretaker, about a good Christian Gospel & Bluegrass band. We decided
that this would be something different for dad's birthday.
It turned out that we had 46 people at dad's birthday and he was thrilled.
Many people who he had not seen for a while came. We also had the band
play some of the songs we knew dad liked. One song being I'll Fly Away.
We had the party when Uncle Kent and Uncle Ed and Aunt Lois came to
visit. The party was on the 16th of December. This worked out better than
dad's birthday which is December 25th.
Dad was so happy that his family had come to visit him plus he just kept
saying; 46 people came to my party. This was indeed a special birthday for
him.
