To Ernie, Peggy, Paul and all of your families may I offer my sympathy on the loss of your mother (grandmother). I have only the fondest of memories of Eleanor. She was a wonderful lady who was always a joy to visit or share phone chats with. She will be missed in life but we all have our memories.
