Ernestine “Erna” Freisinger, a resident of Warwick since 1942, passed away peacefully on July 1, 2014 at Schervier Pavilion, three days short of her 102nd birthday.

She was the beloved widow of well-known Warwick physician, Dr. H. R. Freisinger.  

Erna was a member of St. Stephens parish and a member of the Warwick Art League, with a wonderful reputation for her numerous paintings gracing a number of homes and the cover of the telephone directory. 

She leaves behind a son, Dr. Gerard Freisinger, of Warwick; two grandchildren:  Particia Mullhaupt of Warwick, and Suzanne Soule of Portland, OR; and five grandchildren. 

The family would like to express their gratitude to her physicians, Drs. Cappelleri and Fiore, as well as the many nurses and goddaughter, Maureen Space, who cared for her over the years.  

Visitation will be on Monday, July 7th, from 6:00 pm-8:00 pm at Lazear-Smith & Vander Plaat Memorial Home, 17 Oakland Ave., Warwick.  Funeral service will take place at 8:00 pm.  Burial will be private.
