Eleanor was loved and will be missed by all who knew her. Her strong belief in our Lord and Jesus will see her through to be with those dearly departed. Although we feel sorry for her loss, we rejoice in having the opportunity to have shared in her wonderful life. We are forever thankful for the light she has brought to so many lives. She was the matriarch of our family, and we are all very proud of the way she kept us all on track through the years. She was a kind and gentle soul, and we are honored to have been a part of her life. She is finally at peace.
