ELIZABETH HENTSCHEL Obituary

With broken hearts we announce the death of Elizabeth (Ellie) Hentschel, who lost her long battle with addiction on July 7, 2024. Ellie was deeply loved by her parents, Betty DelBianco and Paul Hentschel, and her brother Eric. They will remember a brilliant, beautiful, talented and loving young woman who fought with courage and strength against the cruelty of lifelong mental health problems. Her loyalty, compassion and wicked sense of humour will be missed by her extended family - Bonnie DelBianco and Richard Peirce, Eric and Maria Hentschel, Andy and Gina DelBianco, Rob DelBianco, and cousins Kirsten, Meredith and Peter Hentschel and Malloree, Olivia, Evan and Sarah DelBianco and Carson and Cole Peirce - as well as her loyal and cherished friends. A private service will take place at a later date. Those who wish to do so are invited to make a donation to the Toronto Humane Society.

Dear Betty,
I have been away on our sailboat for most of the summer, and yet kept up with the Globe+Mail whenever we could. So I was very saddened to read of the passing of your beautiful daughter, such an awful illness that we still have not learned enough about treatments that cure. My sincere condolences to you, your husband and your son. The notice was filled with love and compassion. I hope that your memories will always bring you some happiness, she must have filled your life with her smile.
Best wishes, Helen Kenney, RN

My heart goes out to the entire family, and I hope you find comfort in one another. If there is ever anything I can do to help, please don´t hesitate to ask.

Love,

We were so sad to hear this. Dave and I only met Ellie once but we never forgot the bright and quirky young girl who mingled with the grownups, bowing and greeting us with "Konnichiwa" and a twinkle in her eye. We are so very sorry for your loss.
