Ellen Alice Hubbart List of Cumberland Hills, Aiken SC, died Monday June 5, 2017. She was born July 21, 1920 in Cumberland County IL. She was one of five daughters born to Horace and Myrtle Hubbart. Raised in the Quaker religion, she left high school preceding WWII to work in a shoe factory. At the age of 19 she took a bus to Indianapolis, IN to enroll in a beauticians' college. While working in Indianapolis she met Marcus List of Orleans IN and four months later they married. Mark was a greens superintendent on golf courses and he worked in Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois. During this time they became the parents of four children: Linda, E. Lee, Mark and Nina. Ellen was active in their children's lives, learning from each new experience. With the move to Illinois, Ellen joined Mark in running the golf course as she managed the kitchen and snack shop. Ellen became known for her homemade pies and golfers would call to reserve a tee time and a piece of pie. Ellen and Mark retired early and moved to Cherokee Village, AR where Ellen completed EMT training and volunteered on the ambulance. Later she became the lead recruiter for EMTs. She was a tireless volunteer for the Spring River Presbyterian Church in Hardy Ar. She loved to go rafting on the Spring River that ran behind their house, with or without company. As their children grew up and settled across the United States and other countries Mark and Ellen traveled extensively with Ellen planning the routes they would travel and the sights they would see. After Mark's death, Ellen moved to Aiken SC to live at Cumberland Village to be close to her family. With her diverse background she readily made friends at Cumberland Village, both at the "Big House" and at Cumberland Hills. She was preceded in death by her parents, Horace and Myrtle; her sisters Helen, Iverna, Ina, and Irma all of Greenup IL, an infant great granddaughter; and, her husband Marcus. She is survived by her daughters Linda (Dennis) McGurer and E.
