Elnora Lee Houghton, 71, of Kirksville, Missouri, passed away unexpectedly Tuesday (December 23, 2008) at Columbia University Medical Center in Columbia, Missouri, following an automobile accident, south of Kirksville.

The daughter of Thomas Lee and Mildred Mae (Abney) Marler, she was born September 16, 1937 in Festus, Missouri. On June 7, 1957 in Kirksville, Missouri, Elnora was united in marriage to Everett D Houghton who preceded her in death on January 25, 1989.

She was also preceded in death by her parents.

Elnora is survived by three children, Donna Jean Wilson and husband Ed of St. Joseph, MO, Melvin Houghton and wife Katie of Trenton, MO and Shirlene Lloyd and husband Jason of Greentop, MO; four brothers and three sisters-in-law, Carl and Charlotte Marler of Atlanta, MO, Phillip and Beth Marler of Sunset Hills, MO, Darrel Marler of Festus, MO and Kenneth and Barb Horton of Lennox, SD; one sister Brenda Moon and special friend Doug Counts, both of Festus, MO; four grandchildren, Brett Zinn, Alisha Kelim and husband David, Chanse and Creed Houghton; two great-grandchildren, Wyatt and Calvin Kelim and numerous nieces and nephews.
