“The Ele’s Place mission speaks to me personally, as I experienced the death of my father when I was a teenager. Like so many adults, I truly wish there had been a place like Ele’s Place when I was young and my family was grieving,” said new Ele’s Place, Inc. CEO Jennifer Wolfe Howard in a release.

On May 7, Ele’s Place Ann Arbor will host its 5th annual Derby Day Soirée outside of Concordia University‘s historic Earhart Manor.
