Obituary of Ella Lou Guillory

Mrs. Ella Lou Guillory went home to be with our Father on June 15, 2019. Ella was born in a small town in Louisiana called Chataignier on January 8, 1935, to the parentage of Frank and Gussie Issac. She accepted Christ and was baptized at a very young age.Ella absolutely loved her children and her entire family. She was very close to her siblings. Her siblings will all agree that she was her Mother's baby girl and was spoiled by not only her Mother, but her entire family. The spoiling didn't stop with her. Ella also spoiled everyone in her life.If you knew her at all, you knew that she was a Prayer Warrior! She was also the best listener, that is after she told you what she had to tell you in that sweet voice of hers. The love she had for our Heavenly Father was so evident in everything she did. The most important thing to Ella was living for Christ and making sure she always gave God all the Glory.Ella loved good food! And we all know she was one of the Best Cooks in the world. Her cooking was a labor of love. She was a Charter Member of Emmanuel Missionary Baptist Church, and was still a choir member. Ella loved her church family and honored and supported her Pastor. You better not talk about her church or her Pastor. She also was a member of the Western State Women's Auxiliary and the Southern District Women's Auxiliary for over 50 years. She treasured her time with the sisters of the Auxiliary.She was preceded in death by her husband, Vincent Guillory; son, Vincent Guillory, Jr.; and her parents Frank and Gussie Issac.Mrs. Guillory is survived by her daughters, Sandra Gerstberger and Suzy Chipman; and her sons, Stanley Guillory and Kennedy Guillory; sons-in-law, William Gerstberger and Michael Chipman; daughters-in-law, Melinda Guillory and Debborha Guillory, wife of Vincent Guillory Jr.; sisters, Sola Latour and Nola Gallow; brother, Roger Issac; sister-in-law, Syvonia Issac; grandchildren, JoshuaGuillory, Christopher Guillory, Cullen Bryant, Jr., Brandon Bryant, Brieanna Bryant, Chase Page, Janelle Guillory, Kendal Guillory, and Issac Guillory; and a host of loving nieces, nephews, adopted children and friends.Visitation, 6:00PM-8:30PM, Friday, June 21, 2019, Emmanuel Missionary Baptist Church, 3615 Vickers Drive, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80918.Celebration of Life, 11:00AM, Saturday, June 22, 2019, Emmanuel Missionary Baptist Church, 3615 Vickers Drive, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80918.Graveside Service, 1:00PM, Monday, June 24, 2019, Pikes Peak National Cemetery, 10545 Drennan Road, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80925.
