The daughter of Albert and Gladys Casey, she was born August 8, 1922 in Akron, Ohio. Ellen loved her family more than anything in this world.

Ellen was always very active in all of the churches that she belonged to. She taught Sunday School at Shreve Methodist Church and was in the Toppers Group at Mansfield Baptist Temple. Ellen greatly enjoyed many trips with her sister and made many fond memories. A kind soul, Ellen always enjoyed helping other people out in any way she could. An avid gardener, Ellen loved her flowers and hummingbirds.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Alexander Schag; her daughter, Barbara Hixson; her brothers, Don and Eldon Casey; and her sister, Carol Morris.
