Thank you Aunt Dart for helping us along on the hard journey.
Tribal Elder Ellen Edwards Hendricks passed away today. She was 96. Known as Aunt Dart, the petite little lady was one of the last remaining Elders to play a role in ushering the recognition of the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe. She was a guiding light to many and offered good council. Her humor and unique laughter was a bright spot for us during many many trying times.
Our sincere condolences to her son Carlton Sr.,( Butchie and Janie deceased), grand children Carlton Jr., his wife Missy, Desi, Nikia, Shawn,Robbie, Justin and her many great grandchildren.
A life well lived.
