Ellen Marie (Kelly) Maher, formerly Wamback, of Worcester, passed away recently at her home. She was a devoted daughter, sister, wife and mother who was a great source of comfort and joy to all her family. She was taken from us far too soon.

Recently, Ellen finished another successful year of substitute teaching in the Leicester public schools. She was a devoted member of Sacred Heart Parish of Worcester and St. Columba's Parish of Paxton where she served as a Eucharistic Minister for many years. Ellen belonged to the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians, the Froshian Club, was a volunteer with the Worcester County Public School's after school program and the Hanover Theater in Worcester. She was an avid bowler and loved to travel and had many friends at the Greendale YMCA. Ellen loved to be involved in all of her family's activities and will be dearly missed.
