Ellee Amber Ferebee was born on Dec 26, 2017, in Imperial, NE, and  left this world February 8, 2024, at Chadron Community Hospital.
Ellee gave the initial impression of being incredibly shy and introverted. Like a butterfly, she could stay a comfortable distance from people and surroundings until she was ready to land. When she landed, she did so with passion, confidence and joy.
She was very aware of the essence of Ellee and did not waver from who she was. Ellee was funny! She always had a way to brighten the room
Ellee had amazing adoration for her best friends and siblings, Jaydon and Kaitlyn, and passion for the family pets Roxie, Hey-yo and Binx.
Ellee loved to dance, but in keeping with her persona, she chose to share that with a chosen few – family and friends. She loved to learn and was proud of her accomplishments.
Though very quiet in school, she was obsessed with her kindergarten papers – organizing and saving every paper she brought home.
Ellee loved her family and had great fun swimming, camping and hiking with them. She enjoyed trips to Toadstool Geologic Park, Jump Craze, Post Playhouse, Storybook Island and Chadron State Park.
Ellee is survived by her parents Jake and Katie Ferebee; siblings Kaitlyn and Jaydon; Great-Grandma Mary Lou Ferebee (Imperial, NE); Great-Grandma Lavonne Ohlson (Scottsbluff, NE); Grandparents Doug and Donna Ferebee (Champion, NE), Doug and Keri Ohlson (York, NE), and Marge and Jim Shafer (Otis, CO); 7 aunts; and 8 uncles – all of whom will miss her dearly.
Chamberlain Chapel of Chadron is in charge of arrangements for Ellee Ferebee.
