Mementos

Ena Gonsalves married Robert Hoflund before the start of World War II, and together they raised four children- Donna, Denise, Debbie, and Robert- in Inwood, New York City. She later settled in Garnerville with Bob, where she built a long career in banking before her retirement.

 

Ena will be remembered for her distinctive laugh, her love of travel, and her joy in dancing. She was also deeply devoted to animals, from her cherished dogs and cats to her wild birds. Above all, she was a devoted guardian and matriarch to her loving family.
