Ellis died seven days after a motorcycle accident along Highway 20 and Southaven Road dislocated his hip. Both Tillman and Demetra Ellis were on the motorcycle when they hit a car head-on. The collision threw the couple about 20 feet. 
Lt. Steve Cox said the driver of a white car made a sudden turn at a green light. Ellis swerved and missed that car but hit the car behind it. They were less than 10 minutes away from home when the accident occurred.
"All the witnesses couldn't believe the (white) car sat through a green light, and quickly made a turn," said Lt. Steve Cox.
A blood clot traveled from Tillman's hip, to his lungs, then his heart.  In his final minutes, Demetra Ellis said Tillman felt faint, so he raised his hands and called on the Lord.
