Eunice Lingol Obituary
Eunice Gay Lingol, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend, beloved by all, passed away peacefully on July 7, 2010. Eunice loved us all unconditionally. Eunice was born in Bisbee, Arizona, July 9, 1920. She married Einar John Lingol, on August 30, 1940. The family moved to Phoenix after the mines in Bisbee flooded. Eunice is preceded in death by her husband, Einar, brother J.B. and sisters Natalie, Rhonda and Melba. She is survived by her son, Paul Lingol, daughters Paula Jean (PJ) Castillo, Karen Griffiths, and her daughters-in-law Barbara and Roxanne. She has six grandchildren: Kelly Nell, Steve Lingol, Christy (Jeff) Lay, Alan (Laurie) Lingol, Kim Lingol, and Jonathan (Gina) Griffiths. She has 10 great-grandchildren: Shanna, Jessica, Andy, Lexi, Tessa, Stephanie, Aiden, Jake, Adam, and Dillon. Eunice enjoyed her family and was a voracious reader. She also enjoyed bowling, walking, traveling, exploring, camping and seeing new things. She volunteered to help build Habitat for Humanity houses and participated in the Climb to Conquer Cancer. The family celebrated her life and her 90th birthday on Friday. The service will be held on Monday, July 12, 2010, at 10:00 am, Hansen Mortuary, 6500 East Bell Road, Scottsdale, Arizona. A graveside service will follow at Greenwood Memorial Lawn Cemetery, 2300 West Van Buren, Phoenix, Arizona. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in her name to Hospice of the Valley.
