Service was a top priority in her life, along with raising her family. Mary Ellen served as a Relief Society President, Stake Relief Society President, two missions in Nauvoo, Illinois, a Temple mission, and many primary callings. She faithfully did her visiting teaching and had many friends. She would visit the sick and bring meals to those in need. Mary Ellen truly was the Lord's hands. Days before her passing, she reluctantly told her Relief Society president that she wouldn't be able to fulfill her callings any longer. All she wanted to do was serve the Lord. Mary Ellen was reminded then, of the service that she would be a part of on the other side.

Mary Ellen and Morley have 49 grandchildren and 48 great-grandchildren. Spending quality time with her posterity brought much joy to her life. She is loved and cherished by all those who knew her.
