Obituary
“A quiet elegance, and a generosity that asked for nothing back.”
Katherine Ellison spent her life among books and paintings — first as a museum curator, later as the person every friend called for advice. She had an eye for beauty and a gift for making people feel seen. She leaves a husband, two sons, and a circle of friends who will keep telling her stories.
