Eleanor Jenkins Charles

Tom, Sue and Judy,

I was so saddened when I read of your mother's passing in the newspaper. Of the 52 years I spent in education, she (and your Dad) was one of the parents I enjoyed the most. She was a kind, warm and giving lady who always greeted me with a smile. I know what a difficult and life changing event this is for you and want you to know that you and your families are in my thoughts and prayers. Take care of yourselves.

What a beautiful picture and biography for such a beautiful person, Eleanor. How fitting it is that she passed on the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, the global citizen that she was, loving and respecting the Earth and all its cultures. We will miss her friendliness and sharp wit, but most of all, her wisdom and grace. She provided so many teachable moments, while all the time telling us how much she learned from us what a role model and dear soul. Indeed, it is a privilege to have known her,...

Eleanor was a Joy to know and I always considered her a friend. She and Tom always shared time with me at the front desk which I worked at the Methodist Country House for many years. They bounced off of each other and demonstrated their love for each other and the world in which they lived. So glad they are once again together in God's Kingdom. God Bless her family and you have my condolences.
