Della Hircock

Della Rovella (Schatz) Hircock, 57, passed away on Tuesday, May 22, 2012 at her home.

Della was born on April 11, 1955 to Lillian Catherine Howe and William Christian Schatz of Kansas City, Missouri.

Left to cherish her memory are her husband, Dale Hircock, whom she married January 9, 1989 at the Church of Christ in Des Moines, Iowa; sons, Christopher Elliott and Jason Elliott; daughters, Fransisca Elliott, Jamie Danley, Jessica Hircock and Samantha Hircock; mother, Lillian (Howe) Eslick; brothers, William Schatz, Clifford Eslick, Jr., and Raymond Eslick; sister, Cathy Schotte; and grandchildren, Cody, Canton, Ethyn, Raven, Cheyenne, Hailey, Trent, Calvin, Jaden, Frances, Jack, Elijah, and Aiden.

She is preceded in death by her father, William Schatz and father, Clifford Vernon Eslick as well as her grandsons, Dakota Elliott and Damian Kimmel.

Della had a loving spirit and considered many other children to be her grandchildren and children. She considered Rita to be her sister and Rita’s mother, Donna to be like a second mother. Della loved so many people; it’s hard to believe the world was ever big enough to hold such a huge heart. Della would like this time to be a time for the celebration of her life.
