This was our grand children's other Grandma. We had known "Elli" for 20 years or so. Despite our differences, she was a good friend and a great Gramma. We will miss her dearly.
We knew Elli when her and her family moved into the apartment complex we managed. Our grand kids dad [Archie] was just a punk kid then. He grew [way] up and pursued our daughter. They gave us the kids we have today.
Her husband Mel passed years ago, but I think he would have been proud of how she cared for and loved her grandkids. We loved Ellie and anyone who has a problem with that, well, can kiss our ass. We know the police are pursuing her case and they will find the culprit. We hope that when they find that culprit, they will give him or her to the family of Ellie for Alaskan justice.

FAIRBANKS - Ellen Florence Juneby Rada, 58, who was found unconscious
with serious injuries, June 28 at a Fairbanks homeless camp, died Sunday
afternoon at the Alaska Native Medical Center in Anchorage.
Her sister, Adeline Juneby Potts, was at her bedside, holding her hand when she passed at approximately 4 p.m.
Because of bleeding from the brain, Rada was taken to Anchorage for specialized care. On Monday, July 2, life support was removed.
The Juneby family, from Eagle Village, lost another family member on July 1, when Isaac Juneby, 71, died in a car crash in Anchorage after spending hours at the hospital at his sister’s side.
Adeline, who traveled to Anchorage from her home in Minnesota, suffered a heart condition during the 10-day hospital vigil, but is recovering well.
Fairbanks Police Lt. Dan Welborn, said the investigation into the circumstances surrounding Rada’s injuries continues.
“It is a sad time,” he said. “We will be in contact with the family, and we will have additional followup information early this week.”
Rada’s body will be taken to the medical examiner’s office for an autopsy.
A Fairbanks memorial service for Isaac and Ellen will be held at 4 p.m. today, Monday July 9, in the Chief David Salmon Tribal Hall. A luncheon fundraiser for the Juneby family precedes the service from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
A funeral service in Eagle for the siblings is slated for 1 p.m. Wednesday followed by burial at Eagle Village Cemetery.
