Ellie was a Viet Nam Veteran and active in the Aitkin American Legion, Aitkin DAV, Knights of Columbus and a member of St. James Catholic Church in Aitkin. He loved to play cards and enjoyed fishing with neighbors and friends from the legion and hunting with family members. If you told Ellie something needed to be done, he would make sure it got done. He was the icon of the extended Lindenfelser family and will be missed by all. Rest in peace.
