Aunt Eleanor will definitely be missed. We enjoyed visiting with her a few weeks. Even when she wasnt feeling well she was still smiling and cracking jokes. She was such a loving, and caring person with a huge heart! How happy she must be now to be reunited with her loved ones in heaven.

My Grandma, My Hero.
If there is one person in this world to teach me the importance of love and family it was her! I have never in my life met any one person that was as full of love as her. Her health wasn't that great but her heart was. I find myself asking, What would Grandma say about this? My daughter will be getting her middle name in Grandma's remembrance. If there was one thing she looked forward to, it was becoming a great-grandma! She wanted to hold her so bad but now she will not be able to considering she is not even born yet. So when I look into my daughter's eyes for the first time, I will be thinking of Grandma and giving her hugs and kisses from her. I love my Grandma VERY dearly and she will always be in my heart. <3

I will definitely miss you . Watching you suffer as much as you did and still had a smile on your face, full of love that you've shared with everyone. The pain she suffered and being so strong willed made me realize how much of a wonderful person she was. She hardly complained and was always so Thankful.
You are now in Peace in Heaven with Jesus and all your loved ones that went there before you. I will miss you Eleanor Love you for ever and ever.

My sincere sympathies goes out to the Bussell-Matthews in this time of mourning. The Bible in 2nd Cor.1:3 "Blessed be the God & Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies & the God of all comfort." May these words comfort you in your grieving time.
Sincerely.
