Ellison Lee Clinton

It is with deep sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of Ellison Lee Clinton, who left us to be with the Lord on October 3rd, 2026, in Lancaster, South Carolina. Born on March 21, 1955, in Lancaster, SC, Ellison was a beacon of strength and compassion, known for his unwavering love and dedication to his family and community. Ellison was the cherished son of the late Leroy and Juanita Clinton, and he carried forward their legacy of kindness and resilience. His life was a testament to the values instilled in him by his parents, which he passed on to his own family with grace and devotion. A devoted husband, Ellison is survived by his beloved wife, Angelica Massey Clinton, whose partnership was the cornerstone of a beautiful marriage filled with love and laughter. Together, they raised two wonderful daughters, Monique Clinton and Shante Knox, who will forever carry their father's teachings and love in their hearts. Ellison was a proud grandfather to nine grandchildren, each of whom brought immense joy and pride to his life. His presence at family gatherings, always filled with warmth and humor, will be deeply missed by all who knew him. An avid fisherman and golf player, Ellison found peace and joy in the great outdoors, where he spent countless hours perfecting his swing and casting his line. His love for these hobbies was only surpassed by his love for those he shared them with, creating memories that will be cherished by family and friends alike. A service to honor and celebrate Ellison's life will take place on October 11th, 2026, at 1:30 PM at McEwen Funeral & Cremation Service, Forest Lawn West, located at 4601 Freedom Drive, Charlotte, NC. 704-395-0055 Family and friends are invited to gather in remembrance of a life well-lived and a man well-loved. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Ellison's memory to a charity of your choice. As we bid farewell to a remarkable husband, father, grandfather, and friend, we hold close to our hearts the special message from his family: "Forever in our hearts!" Ellison's legacy will continue to inspire all who were fortunate enough to know him. May he rest in eternal peace.
