She was the beloved daughter of Mathieu and Marie Jocelyne Turenne. Ella was an artist, activist, educator and entrepreneur. Her theatrical career started at the age of 5, and her credits have also extended to the small and large screen. Her first one-women show, Love, Locs and Liberation was a winner of a 2018 Hollywood Fringe Festival Scholarship and an Encore Producer Award. At the age of 19, she starred, directed and produced her own television talk show, The Ella Show. As a filmmaker, her work has been showcased in numerous national and international venues.
Ella's passion for creative expression led her to become a prolific poet, writer and journalist. She was a member of several grassroots organizations that empowered communities of color, and she was an avid activist for social justice, equality and positive social change.
Ella will be deeply missed by family and friends.
A funeral service for Emmanuela will be held Saturday, January 15, 2022 at 11:00 AM at Our Lady of Grace, 300 Malabar Rd SE, Palm Bay, FL 32909.
