Ellen Goodridge

Ellen “Peggy” Colletta Goodridge, 89, of Burlington, Kentucky, the heart and soul of our family, passed peacefully with the love of her family in her heart, on Friday, March 28, 2025.

Ellen was born on March 6, 1936, to the late Charles and Ellen Young and was the beloved wife of the late William Louis Goodridge. She also had the most loving brothers and sisters anyone could possibly have.

Ellen is survived by her children, Bill (Sherry), Amy (Barry), and Ellen (Trent). She was such a wonderful grandmother and great-grandmother to Bari Lynne, Briana, Chester, Carley, Caroline, Louie, Beau and Ray. She is also survived by siblings, Marilyn (Jim) Engle, Charlene (Pete) Burger, Chuck (Mary Ann) Young, and Mike (Bette) Young.

Ellen was lovingly known as “Honey”, and she was just as sweet as her name. Ellen was always thinking of others and wanted to help in any way possible. Taking care of her family was top priority… and she mastered that to perfection. Sunday “Real Meals” and beautifully set tables every Thanksgiving and Christmas are cherished memories that will always be with us. Family was everything to our “Honey”.

Services are private and at the convenience of the family. 

Memorial contributions are suggested to Madonna Manor, c/o Grounds Maintenance, 2344 Amsterdam Road, Villa Hills, Kentucky 41017.
