Erin Hankey Obituary
Erin Rambo Hankey, age 28 died suddenly on Thursday July 10. Born December 26, 1985, Erin had an extraordinarily beautiful smile that made the world light up. She was intelligent, warm and loving. She was a joy to be with and a loyal friend. Erin graduated from Severna Park High School and attended the Culinary Institute of Virginia. She had an affection for cooking and loved the Baltimore Ravens. She was an avid runner and a voracious reader. Erin was much loved and will be greatly missed. Erin is survived by a loving family: her parents Clifford McDonald Hankey and Jean Rambo Hankey, her brother Ethan Rambo Hankey, her brother Colin Rambo Hankey and his wife Rebeca Mora and their sons, Isaac Mora Hankey and Saul Mora Hankey. An Informal Blessing of the Ashes will be held on Wednesday July 16th, 2014 at Erin's home at 903 Hillen Drive, Millersville starting at 10:00 am. In lieu of flowers, contributions in her name may be made to the Save The Children Foundation (savethechildren.org) or a favorite charity. Erin's family would like to thank family and friends that have provided and are providing comfort and support at this very sad time.
