Obituary for Ellen Veronica Himebaugh
Ellen Veronica Himebaugh, born October 7th, 1942, in Springfield, Missouri to Anthony and Mary Lou Arnold, passed away on September 6th, 2022 at the age of 79.
Ellen spent the majority of her youth and school years living overseas with her parents. Her love of traveling continued in adulthood as she enjoyed snowbirding with her husband Keith in Florida Keys and going on many family vacations; she especially loved the ocean. Ellen’s free time often consisted of gardening and making blankets for Newborns in Need. Much of Ellen’s life was spent with her loving family, especially her children and grandchildren. She was extremely proud and supportive of all her children and grandchildren and always made sure they knew how much she loved them.
Ellen was predeceased by her husband, Keith Himebaugh and son-in-law, Richard Hearn Jr. She is survived by her children, Veronica Pohl, Lisa Hearn, Julie Phillips and her husband Jeff, and Richard Pohl and his wife Paige; her five grandchildren, Richard Hearn III and his wife Abagale, Jonathan Hearn, Megan Phillips, Kodie Pohl, and Madison Phillips; and her three siblings, Maggie Silberstein, Tony Arnold, and Charlie Arnold.
Visitation will be held from 2:00pm-3:30pm on Sunday, September 18, 2022, at Herman H. Lohmeyer Funeral Home, 500 E. Walnut Street in Springfield, Missouri. Ellen’s Memorial Service will be held at 3:30pm on Sunday, September 18th, 2022, in the Herman H. Lohmeyer Chapel.
