Elise Kimberly Frigon

On March 12, 2025, Elise Kimberly Frigon, of Henderson Texas passed away unexpectedly. Elise was born in Morristown, New Jersey on June 25th, 1958, to Donald Maas Schliemann and Carol Cheston Schliemann Collier, both deceased.

She found her home in Texas after graduating from Purdue University with a BS in Forestry. She found her heart at Lake Cherokee where she developed wonderful, lifelong friends and cultivated a full life. Her fur babies were an integral part of her happy life. Elise was employed by EmergencHealth for the majority of her career and her EmergencHealth colleagues became her second family. She was a crafter extraordinaire. She could see the potential art in something as simple as metal flanges or glass doorknobs and loved to create whimsical art pieces to share. Elise was also an active member of Zonta.

Elise leaves a sister, Donna (Scott), a brother, Todd (Susan); nephews, Luca and Gian Carlo; nieces, Hailey and Chelsea (Chris); grandnephew, Skyler; and grandnieces, Chloe and Hazel.

No services are planned as was her wish. Her family is comforted knowing that God now holds her in the hollow of his hands. Local arrangements under the direction of Rader Funeral Home in Kilgore.
