Eleanor was a very sweet lady. I work at Rockland Trust. I will miss her coming in the bank. She was sharp and so with it. God Bless her.

Dear Family,

I am so saddened to hear of Eleanor's passing.
I spent 15 years at the Silver Lounge and have the fondest memories of her, as we all "kibbitzed" with her when she came to dine there.
A lovelier lady could not be found.
I will always treasure the friendship we shared.

Sincere condolences to you all.

Warm Summer Sun

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.
