Catherine "Katy" (O'Donnell) E. Ellerton Obituary (1951 - 2018)

Born November 4, 1951 in Seattle to Patrick and Winnifred (Cooney) O'Donnell. Died February 28, 2018 in Kent. Katy is preceded in death by her parents and her grandson, Caleb Quaife. She is survived by her children, Shannon, Shawn (Edith), Brent (Jennifer) and Elizabeth; 9 grandchildren; 3 great-grandchildren; her 3 siblings, Dennis O'Donnell (Irene), Diane Patelli, and Bridget DeMuth (Ray); and their families. The family wishes to extend their heartfelt thanks to all of those who have supported her in her long illness. Katy's honest and hardheadedness knew no equal, but she lived her life with a genuine love for people, her Family and our Lord. Her generosity had no bounds, denying herself for the good of others. She often said her life was a willing sacrifice for God to use as he saw fit. She would pray until exhausted and run the purse empty just to bring relief to another. In our loss, we find comfort knowing she hurts no more. Vigil Service and Rosary will be Thursday, March 8th at 7:00pm and the Funeral Mass will be Friday, March 9th at 10:30am BOTH at Holy Spirit Catholic Church 327 2nd Ave S, Kent 98032.
