We have been so honored to know and love Eleanor! She will be missed by all of us at the Sterling House in IGH!! We will miss her wit, her smile, her willingness to try anything! She was always kind and often shared her thoughts about current topics. We hope that your memories will bring you all comfort now and always.

The few times I have been with Grandma Belden she was so happy, especially when she was around her family. She was a sweet and considerate lady. Strong in the heart to the end. I know I will miss hearing about her.
