Roena Thompson(1928-2011)
Services for Roena "Ernestine" Thompson will be held at Dannel Funeral Home on Friday, August 19, 2011 at 11 a.m. Visitation will be at 10 a.m. prior to service. Interment to follow service at Akers Cemetery, Sherman, Texas.
Ernestine Thompson passed away peacefully on August 16, 2011, in Denison, Texas, surrounded by her family. She fought a long courageous battle with liver disease. She was born December 13, 1928 in Sherman, Texas, to Ernest and Jessie Cole, in a little house in a field which later became Oscar Mayer.
She married young to Charles Thompson and later became mother to Robert Kenneth Thompson, and Lee Edward Thompson. She and Charles raised their boys in the Grayson county area and later settled in Collinsville. She worked at the Denton State School and later became self- employed as a housekeeper for many homes and businesses until she retired in 1998. She attended church at Collinsville Church of Christ.
Ernestine called Collinsville home until 4 years ago when her illness progressed and she moved closer to family in Denison, Texas. She loved to crochet, sew, cook and just find different things to keep her busy. She loved her kids and grandchildren but something about those great-grandchildren delighted her in a way that words can't explain. You could always bring her a home grown tomato to get a great smile from her. She loved the garden at her granddaughters and husbands home.
Ernestine is preceded in death by her son, Robert Kenneth Thompson; mother, Jessie Reed Cole; sister, Betty Jo Hurst and father, Ernest Cole.
Ernestine is survived by her sister, Jackie Rice and husband Billy; son Lee Edward Thompson and wife Lana; granddaughters: Shari Martin Bassermann and husband Jason, Tiffany Jones, Kimberly Platt and husband Wylie.
Great-grandchildren: Brandon Vannoy, Daniel Vannoy, Corey Martin, Courtney Martin, Atley Bassermann, Justin Jones. Great-great grandchild, Keagan Vannoy.
Pallbearers will be Corey Martin, Dennis Haskins, Daniel Vannoy, Zac Hinton-Waller, David Waller, Sam Tocquiney, Brandon Vannoy.
