Ellen Ligon Obituary

It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Ellen Ligon (Gloversville, New York), who passed away. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Ellen Ligon to show support.

She was predeceased by: her father Thomas Pollard; her husband John Ligon, Sr.; her son Larry; her granddaughter Jhanyce; her siblings, Thomas (Isabelle), Henry (Queen Esther), Donald Pollard, Yvonne Pollard, Myrtle Gray (Sid) and Mildred Bowman (Raymond); and her brother-in-law Calvin Beekman.

She is survived by: her children, John (Charlene), Paul (Jennifer), Neal (Marilyn), Gail Ligon, JoAnn Allen (Ron), Rebecca Ligon and Tina Cook; her daughter-in-law Debra Ligon; her niece Margo Reid; and her godson Harry Robinson (Brian Hall). She is also survived by 20 grandchildren, 19 great greatgrandchildren, a host of nieces and nephews.

Her most favorite assignment as a Senior Companion was at the Lexington Day Habilitation Program where she worked until the COVID-19 pandemic prevented her from continuing to work.
