Sadly, yes it is. Sheryl posted an announcement about it this morning.

Posted on the Alice Cooper's Solid Rock Facebook page

Our love to the Cooper family:

Dec. 27th 2022. She was 97 years old.
Ella was born on September 16th 1925 to Sam and Ellen McCart in Glenmary, Tennessee. Raised on a farm she moved to Detroit, Michigan at age 16 to work with her sister in a factory during WWII. She was truly a “Rosie the Riveter”.
Meeting her true love Ether (Mick) Furnier shortly after, they married in 1945. They raised two children; daughter Nickie Crandall and son Vincent Furnier (Alice Cooper).
Ella’s passion was her love of Jesus and the gospel. This prompted her and her husband’s ministry to the Apache tribes living on the San Carlos reservation in Arizona from 1961 - 1987. As a pastor’s wife and a deaconess she served faithfully.
A new venture was taken when Ella opened a retail gallery in Old Town Scottsdale with her husband in 1977. She delighted in selling art, jewelry, and Native American treasures.
After her husband’s passing in 1987, Ella lived with her son Alice and daughter in law Sheryl for 30 years. Her influence was instrumental in helping to raise three grandchildren (Calico, Dashiell, and Sonora) and four great grandchildren (Falcon, Riot, Rexington, and Desiree).
As a mother, Ella was staunchly supportive of her daughter Nickie’s career in banking and her son Alice’s career in music. Fans knew and loved her worldwide.
Ella was preceded in death by her husband Mick, her brother Arnold, her sister Anne, and her brother Howard. She leaves behind her sister Pearl.
Our family will miss her until we are reunited.
“For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.”
2 Corinthians 5:1

I always liked that one quote from her: “Hey, superstar. Take out the garbage.” Sounds like she was made of tough stuff. :HEART:
