Eleanor was a good friend to my Mom at Fairview. She had a quick mind, great humor, and a wonderful laugh. We were very lucky to have known her.

To a wonderful Great Aunt, you will be missed. You could always make me smile and laugh. I loved our visits, even though they weren't often enough. To watch you with Brandon warmed my heart. You were very special to him. I will treasure the memories. Love you!
