Katheryn Ellenbolt

Katheryn Kaye Ellenbolt, 72, of Lansing died Thursday, May 30, 2013 at her home in Lansing. Funeral Services were held Wednesday, June 5 at the United Methodist Church in Lansing, with Rev. Kevin Smith as the officiant. Burial was at Oak Hill Cemetery, Lansing.
Katheryn was born February 24, 1941 to LeRoy and Jean (Bloxham) Ellenbolt in Postville. She graduated from Lansing High School.
Katheryn worked in Independence for a short while. She also worked at the Button Factory and Thornton Manor, both in Lansing, and Gundersen Lutheran Hospital in La Crosse, WI. She enjoyed fishing, reading, watching western movies and butterflies.
Anyone who knew Kathy knew of her genuine beautiful smile. Her love covered you like a cloak. When she was around there was a sense of friendship and love that only Kathy could make you feel. She was a loving and caring person and it didn’t matter who you were, you became a friend. Her most cherished friend in life was her brother, Clark. She was always there watching over him and we believe she always will.
Katheryn is survived by her brother, Clark (Connie) Ellenbolt of West Salem, WI; her niece, Heidi Ellenbolt; her nephew, Travis Ellenbolt: and four great-nieces and nephews, Austin, Marshall, Keaton and Aleah.
Katheryn was preceded in death by her daughter, Tammy Ellenbolt; and her parents.
Thornburg-Grau Funeral Home and Cremation Service in Lansing assisted the family with the arrangements.
