Not sure what to say?

Grandma, I can't believe that on the 18th it will have already been a year since we lost you. I miss you terribly, and think about you every day. I will never forget everything you ever did for me, will always miss our conversations, and just knowing you were always there for me. My little ones miss you; I am sorry they didn't get a chance to know you as well as Brad and Zachary. I hope you're at peace and that maybe someday we will meet again.

Love Jim

Aunt Eleanor, We'll always remember you with love.

My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I remember how gracious and helpful Eleanor was when we both worked at BOE.

Grandma, I hope you know how much you always meant to me; you were like another mother, and I hope you know how much I appreciate all you ever did for me (and my family). You were the one I could always count on, the one who was always there for me, even if it was just to talk. I miss you so much already, knowing I will never see your face or hear your voice anymore, knowing I can't just pick up the phone and tell you how things are going in my life. I know you wouldn't want me to be so sad,...

Eleanor was a friend, mother-in-law and served as a role model to many of us, including my daughter (her grandaughter), Kristen Holmes. We enjoyed many meals, gatherings, and discussions with this truly remarkable woman. She will be remembered as a strong, caring woman who loved reading! Rest in peace, Eleanor. You will always be held in joyful memories with us.

Eleanor was a great step-mother, and I will miss her. She was one of the most positive and good-hearted people I've ever known.

Eleanor was very kind and always saw the best in others. All that in spite of lifelong chronic pain from multiple back surgeries. I will miss her. -Don Holmes

Barbara, please know my thoughts and prayers are with you today. Your mom is in God's hands now and he always takes care of one of his children. Love, Roberta Purser

Eleanor was a wonderful mother-in-law and she blessed me greatly in having her become part of my family as I became part of hers. She was always gracious and hospitable to everyone who visited her home. She loved many and will be greatly missed.
