Aunt Eleanor was an outstanding woman. I remember playing in her back yard while she would sit back and enjoy the moment while eating her famous liverwurst. Her smile and laugh were precious. On behalf of my family we send our prayers. She will always be remembered.

Not sure where we would have been without you and Uncle Frank's generosity! You two truly were our second parents...thanks so much for your kindness and teachings. It always amazed me how you never forgot a card for someone's birthday along with other holidays. You will be missed by the family.
Love,
Robbie
