In memory of Adeline Ellenberg, a loving mother, sister, grandmother, mother-in-law, aunt, friend, and coworker. She was born on August 23, 1947, and went to heaven on February 10, 2024 at the age of 76, leaving behind memories that bring both tears and smiles.
She grew up in a military household and lived all over the country including Minnesota, Pennsylvania, California and Oklahoma before settling in Conroe, Texas. Adeline was a rock-solid Christian whose unwavering faith guided her every step. She wasn't just a hardworking mom of 6; she was the glue that held her family together and the go-to support system for anyone in need.
During her 20-year career in quality control at Steris, she showed up every day with dedication and integrity, earning respect from everyone around her. Off the clock, she had a knack for capturing life's moments through her camera lens. She loved colorful, fragrant flowers, especially roses and lilacs. She enjoyed chocolate and sipping on ice cold Coca-Cola.
Though she's no longer with us, Adeline's legacy of love and faith will forever live on. Let's remember her with laughter and love, knowing she's watching over us from above.
Preceded in death by parents Edwin and Gladys Sprecher, siblings Ross Sprecher and Valda Sprecher.
