 NOVGORODOFF, Ellen
Ellen (ne'e Chan) Nogorodoff passed away on Saturday, June 30, 2001, 
at her home in North Charleston, S.C. Private services have been 
arranged at J. HENRY STUHR, INC., GREENRIDGE ROAD CHAPEL, N. CHARLESTON
, S.C. Ellen was born in Hong Kong on November 15, 1918, the fifth 
daughter of Dr. T.C. Chan, Jr., a widely recognized practicing 
physician in the southern provinces of China. Ellen's uncle, General 
Chiung-Ming was a prominent military leader who played a vital role in 
the birthing of modern China during the turbulent 1921-23 years, the 
outcome of which affected the lives of millions. In early 1951, Ellen 
cleverly managed to free herself from communist controlled Shanghai 
and eventually rejoin her husband in Tokyo. Prior to immigrating to 
the United States in the spring of 1959, Ellen lived in Rio de Janiero,
Brazil. She had been employed by Time-Life Far East and CALTEX.
Ellen is survived by her husband, Eugene, two sons, Bernard David 
Novgorodoff, born in Shanghai, now living in Louisville, Ky., and 
Samuel J. Novgorodoff, born during carnival in Rio de Janiero, Brazil, 
now living in New York City and three grandchildren, Danica, Jaclyn, 
and Devin. Memorial messages may be e-mailed to the family at
