Not sure what to say?

My deepest sympathy to her family--she was a warm & lovely lady. Mary Ann (Packer)Cooper Webster...Ma Packer's daughter.

TO ALL WHO KNEW THIS GENTLE LADY KNOWS WHAT A POSITIVE TOUCH SHE GAVE OUR LIVES..I FOR ONE AM GLAD THAT SHE ENTERED MY LIFE. PEACE DEAR LADY..PEACE.

It saddens me so the passing of "Mom" Hamilton. She was such an inspiration to me as a young girl. She molded me into the woman I am today. I remember going to Ohio for a vacation to visit Jim's parents one winter with my sister, Jim and her. Deborah and Gayle were babies in Greer Cottage way back then. I am so glad I reconnected with her at the 2010 reunion. My heartfelt condolences to her family. She will be remembered fondly by everyone who knew her. With much love. . .

I have so many memories of Mrs. Hamilton, when she and Mr. Hamilton were my houseparents at Greer Cottage. They, and their children, were all a part of my childhood. I'm so pleased that I was able to speak with her again at our last reunion. She was a very gentle and caring person and will be truly missed.

Eleanor and Jim were wonderful houseparents at Greer. They were kind and gentle, but managed to keep sometimes unruly adolescents in line.

So very glad that I was able to see Eleanor at the Greer School's 2010 Reunion. I had Jim as my 7th Grade teacher. They were both very special and gracious people - setting an excellent example for living Life. We are all blessed to have known them.

Eleanor was a sweet & warm person. Someone you felt you could confide in & she would listen. She & Jim helped me make my move from Greer to Minnesota over 52 years ago. God Bless her.

I recall Eleanor as a friendly colleague who was upbeat and always had a smile for you. God bless her and her family.
