Not sure what to say?

Just wanted to send out condolences to all my Cloyd relatives on Eleanor’s passing. We all are finding out these days how it feels to lose a treasured loved one, a little too often lately I’d say. We certainly wish you all the best as you navigate this process. Our thoughts are with you!

My brother Terrell Sweezy is a proud classmate and fellow graduate of Piedmont HS Class of 1960! My brother spoke fondly and highly of Eleanor prior to Alzheimer onset.So Sorry for your loss, Eleanor she was a very sweet person.

In loving memory of a wonderful Mother. We will love you and miss you always.

So sorry and saddened that our Eleanor passed away- a truly loving and caring cousin. So sorry that I cannot attend service due to physical issue. Love to all the Elam family.

To the family, I am so sorry for your loss, Mrs. Cloyd, which she would tell me my name is Eleanor, she was such a beautiful for person inside and out always smiling even when she didn’t feel well, I am surely going to miss seeing her, but God knows best, no more suffering, no more pain, God bless each and every one of you to have peace and comfort during this time.
