February 16, 1934 — August 17, 2012
Sanchez, Ellie
Ellie Sanchez was born on February 16, 1934 and raised in Whittemore, Iowa. She passed away on August 17, 2012. She graduated in Interior Design from the University of Iowa. She worked in Chicago with Heuer Interiors. That is when she met Robert, who was a dental school student at Northwestern University. After Robert's graduation, they married and immediately left for his tour of duty in Germany. They returned in 1960 and moved to Albuquerque, NM. Ellie and Robert have five children. Their names are Dr. Robert Sanchez and wife, Lianne, Linda Sanchez, Dr. Gary Sanchez and wife, Julie, Dr. Greg Sanchez and wife, Kate, Dr. Leslie Sanchez-Goettler and husband, Drew. Their grandchildren are Jasmine, Reed, Bella, Jacqueline, Ben, Will and Jordan. Her pride in life has always been her family. She was that mom you could count on to be at every event and every recital supporting and encouraging each child and their friends. When the children were grown, Ellie decided to start a Real Estate career. She earned the distinction of Albuquerque's Realtor of the Year. She had that innate ability to connect with people and her success came from making all of her clients feel very special. They became more than clients - they were her friends. Ellie loved playing the piano. She was an accomplished pianist and loved entertaining others. Later in life she played the piano at the Albuquerque Veteran's Hospital three days a week for two years. She had a following of patients, nurses, and doctors who would come out into the hall to thank her as she left. Ellie is the best friend anyone could have. She always put everyone else first. She was the ultimate planner and organizer who always got everyone together and made things happen! Ellie would run into friends wherever she went. She is loved by everyone! A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, August 25, 2012 at 04:00p.m. at Netherwood Park Church of Christ, 5101 Indian School Rd. NE. In lieu of flowers please donate to the American Cancer society or Alzheimer's Association. Daniels Family Funeral Services
