Ella was a State of the Art Floral Designer and was named North Carolina Designer of the Year in 1981. Ella's creations were very sought after. Her creativity was unique, beautiful and will be greatly missed.

Ella is survived by son, Donald (Don) Wagoner of Concord,NC; Bruce D. (Buddy) Wagoner, Jr. of Holden Beach, NC; and daughter, Cynthia Barbee of Harrisburg, NC. Ella is also survived by two loving and dear sisters, Josephine Troutman of Salisbury, NC and Lena Beaver of Clemmons, NC.
