After a long and beautiful life, Ellwood Nice, age 96, of Telford, passed away on Wednesday, April 1, 2026. He was the beloved husband of his predeceased wife Regina (Kurian) Nice, with whom he shared over 60 years of marriage.

Born November 1, 1929, in Willow Grove, PA, he was a son of the late Ervin and Emma (Rempfer) Nice.

After graduation, he operated rides at Willow Grove Park, worked in machine shops, and served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. After the war, he worked as a welder at PECO for many years until retirement.

Ellwood enjoyed a variety of hobbies, such as woodworking, painting, gardening, and collecting items like coins and stamps. He played fast and slow-pitch softball for years and bowled regularly.

Before his death, he was preceded in passing by his wife, Regina Nice; his infant son, Ellwood Nice; and his siblings, Anna, Mary, and Ervin.
