Eleanor was in my class all during grade school at Trinity Lutheran here in Springfield. I have not seen her for several years and was sorry to learn of her death. May God be with your families during this difficult time.

Dear Tom & Tricia: Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your children on this very sad occasion.
The last time we saw your mom, both of you and the grandchildren were eating at the old "Ground Round".
We are sorry we did not stay in touch with all of you. We have some very fond memories of the NCR days together. I have her book she wrote and I will always treasure it.
With deepest sympathy,
Roy and Helen Stahr

It has been a long time since Eleanor and I shared car pool to Our Saviors. She was one of the kindest people I have ever met and I know she will be sorely missed by Tom, Tricia, Lois and families.
