Thinking of you Eleanor and all the family. I remember both your mothers as residents of Stones River Manor and working with you and Don as you consulted us for our job descriptions and much more. They remain the baseline for what we use now. I am still at the Manor and have good memories of seeing the two of you there either visiting with your mothers or sharing your expertise. The Burris/Caperton family became apart of the Manor.
