Ellen Hickey Obituary



Ellen Marie Hickey, age 21, a senior at the University of Toledo, died at home on July 2nd, 2020 of no apparent cause.

Grieving, broken, perplexed but not despairing, feeling the incomprehensible love of our Lord Jesus, surviving are her parents Timothy and Laura Hickey, brother Alex, sisters Erin and Tara, niece Ava, nephew Elliot, grandmother Sharon Hickey, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends, with the communities of Our Lady of Perpetual Help parish, Central Catholic High School, ten years of Camp Storer, employers, coworkers and all whom she graced with her abundant, thoughtful and magical love.

We look forward to that day when "He will wipe away every tear from our eyes, and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things will have passed away."

She was preceded in death by her aunt, Jeanne Hickey, uncles Robert Howard and Mick Oakley, grandparents John and Nina Howard, and Gene Hickey. Visitation will be at the Coyle Funeral Home, 1770 S. Reynolds Rd. on Friday, July 10th, from 4:00-7:00 p.m., closing with a brief scripture and prayer service at 7:00. Face masks and distancing will be required.

I remember Ellen smiling.
She always was very respectful, polite and kind. She was my nephew Jonathans friend they were always laughing about everything. I remember driving them to Troy Michigan for a rowing competition and another time we all went to cedar point. She gave me the impression she was a very positive and happy person.
Rest In Peace Ellen.

To Ellen,
My memories with you as a kid are always something I love looking back on. Even though we were young we had many adventures together that will always be in my heart. Such as camping at Camp Libby, playing with dolls and the old rotary phone, and all of our sleepovers. You were one of my first best friends and I will always remember you, fly high angel ❤ My thoughts and prayers go out to your family during this sad time.
