Sis, you still are remembered and greatly missed. I sure miss seeing you! Much love, Bill

Our sympathies.

What fun I had with your mom on Bonaire. She was always such a joy to be around and that night we went out for our "girls" drink at the bar was really a hoot. She will be missed and you both will be in my prayers and thoughts. She is in a better place now of that we can be certain. God Bless you and your family

We met on a cruise, and though we had such a

Mary Eleanor was an extraordinary person, friend, and sister. We are grateful for the love which surrounded her, and for her courage and positive spirit. We love her and shall miss her greatly. God bless her and her family.

What a blessing to have experienced the vitality of Mimi's personality and to have been warmed by just the way she could call your name. Our prayers are with those of you she called family. Remember to laugh at the fun times you had together. She would like that.

Mary Eleanor was our beloved cousin and friend. She was dearly loved and will be greatly missed. May God bless her and her family.
