Charles Ellisor

Charles Ray Ellisor, age 84 of Park Manor in Conroe, Texas, ascended into heaven on Sunday, April 19, 2020 at 2:10 p.m. He was born on January 18, 1936 in San Augustine, Texas to Charlie Russell and Irene Maudie (Henry) Ellisor. On June 28, 1974, he married Agnes Sophie Kubecka.

Charles was an Amateur Radio Operator, WA5FMK (HAM) and a member of the Pipe Fitters Local Union #211. For many years he was employed at Texas Pipe Benders as a welder and fabricator. Charles worked on many historical projects including The Houston Astrodome, known as “The Eighth Wonder of the World”, and The Houston Gulf Building, which is now known as the J. P. Morgan Chase Building.

Charles leaves his loving memories to be cherished by his daughter Charity Brooks and husband Edward “Butch”, daughter Kimberly Devore and husband Curtis, daughter Kathy Ahlschlager and husband Dean, son Stephen Christly and wife Annie, son Mark Ellisor and wife Julie, son Terry Ellisor, 17 grandchildren, and 33 great-grandchildren. He is survived by an abundance of friends.

Charles was preceded in death by his wife of 42 years, Agnes Sophie (Kubecka) Ellisor, and his parents, Charlie Russell and Irene Maudie (Henry) Ellisor.

Charles was a man of indomitable courage and fearlessness for what he believed to be right. He detested semblance of false show or hypocrisy – he was plain spoken, and his expressions were honest and genuine. When he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, he refused to allow it to be a hindrance to how he lived his life.

The legacy Charles has left behind is one that can truly only be described as divine. His faith guided him throughout his life’s journeys. He praised God for the opportunities he was given and always passed any blessings along to those who may have needed them more than himself.

The family will welcome friends and extended family to services at Brookside Funeral Home, 13747 Eastex Freeway, Houston, Texas on Friday, April 24, 2020. Visitation will begin at 1:30 p.m. with the graveside service in Brookside Memorial Park at 2:30 p.m.
