Ellen Teresa Hennesthal

The family announces with great sorrow, Ellen’s sudden passing at Southlake Hospital surrounded by loved ones on June 11th at the age of 72. She is mourned by her husband Karl, 3 daughters – Kristina (Vaughn Spence), Marisa (Frank Gallo) and Bruni (Paul Mulchan), her six grandchildren, Tyler, Tara, Trevor, Taylor, Maiella and Kayla, her sister Carol, twin brother Jon and best friend Eddie. She is predeceased by her parents Edward and Muriel Kitagawa and sister Shirley. She will be fondly remembered for her kindness and generosity and her easy going sense of humor. She was known for her gullibility and was always a good sport. Her laughter will be missed.

Friends and family are invited for a visitation to be held here at Thompson Funeral home on Monday June 16, 2014 from 6:00 – 9:00 pm.
