I will always and forever love and remember Carl Ellen. We met during her career at the Boeing Company and we became close friends for many years. Changes in our lives pull us in different directions and we lost track of each other and I’m grateful in the last few years of Carl life we were able to reconnect. I’ll never forget Carl Ellen and our memories.

I never new Aretha had other siblings besides the ones portrayed in the movies about her life. I pray they get to spend eternity together praising the Lord in a "Land where they'll never grow old".
My sincere condolences to the entire family. I’m sadden to hear of Carl Ellan passing. I worked with Carl Ellan at the Boeing Company and our relationship grew more like family and I’ll cherish all the fun times we had together. RIP my friend.

Saddened to hear of both Carl Ellan & Charles (Sonny) passing. Growing up our families lived across the street from each other.
Wow I didn’t hear of Lady Carl Ellan Franklin Kelley had passed. I was reading the board about Aretha Franklin Sister Carl and saw that she had passed. It seem that she passed right after her sister Aretha. My prayers goes out to her family and close friends. I didn’t know her but I always wanted to see a picture of her and I saw it in the memorial. Now she can rest with her daughter her parents, and her siblings.
Rest in Sweet Peace, Lovely Lady. Knowing you are Loved and will never be forgotten. ??
