Beloved by all, his kind, patient sympathetic
understanding, his great unselfishness and devout
Christian life were among his many attributes.
Forty years after the closing of Christian Endeavor
Academy and twenty years after his life was taken,
this memorial was made possible by his students,
friends and those who learned of his staunch Christian
character through the efforts and accomplishments
of a small, limited alumni association.
Walter March Ellis will ever be
a bulwark of sincere Christian influence to
all who were privileged to know and love him.
August 28, 1965
