Not sure what to say?

Yes, I am glad that her name came up on my e mail. Elinor was a wonderful friend whom I met "swimming" in the JCC pool. She was so proud of her sons and her grandchildren. I hope they all turned out the way she was hoping. One was going to be a Doctor?? and the girl ..she had lots of Happiness from and good future plans. Keep her in your hearts forever...

How saddened I was to read about the passing of Elinor. I met Elinor at the JCC in Worcester where we did our daily swimming. What a wonderful lady she was! She was so proud of her children and grandchildren and would always keep me up to date with their wonderful accomplishments. She was so proud of them. Peter and I send condolences to the Erickson family. Keep her memories in your hearts.

Elinor inspired me both as one of Wachusett’s finest English teachers and as someone who loved her family and enjoyed life. With the exception of a few short-term memory lapses, she was in fine form when I spoke to her by phone about three months ago. She knew how to live, and apparently she had the “good sense,” as she would say, to leave this world while she was still enjoying life. I will miss her. She is a great lady! My condolences to the Erickson family.
