Eleanor Stutler

My love to all of you!
Though I saw each of you last week, I feel that I must express, again, my deepest sorrow for your loss. This will always be such a tragedy, and I am grateful that all of you share so much love, kindness and endearing support for one another. All of you have been through so much together, and it’s wonderful to be witness to a family that remains close through the many trials and tribulations. In that way, you are truly blessed. Your strength and faith will help you with this loss as well and remember that you are loved by many, many people. We are all here for you.
Forever in my thoughts and prayers,
Julia Wannamaker

I have been keeping you all in constant prayer and I hope that you will let your St. Clement's family help carry you through this most difficult time. You are much loved and prayed for! Love, Will, Lori, Cian and Becan Flynn

Jamie, Emily and Susanna,

I cannot begin to imagine what you are feeling at this time. I pray that you can take comfort in knowing that Eleanor (your Mom) is with you, watching you, she just has a better vantage point now. I think of you constantly and hope that you can begin to find comfort with your friends and family-
God Bless you and keep you,

Eleanor was such a beautiful and gentle spirit. It was a joy to work with her on the MDG Task Force.
We are all in shock at our sudden loss and know it is only a taste of your sorrow. Please know that you are in my prayers every day and in the prayers of all who served with Eleanor on the Task Force and with you in Honduras.
My daughter, Katy, also sends her love and support, Emily.

Dear Jamie, Susanna, and Emily,
Though I've only known your family for a short time I have felt a deep sadness in learning of your loss. Eleanor was a beautiful, graceful woman, who obviously loved God and her family with equal abandon. My prayer is that the peace of Christ will reign in your lives as you move through this difficult time. Love to all of you, and an extra measure to you, Susanna...Yours in Christ...

Dear Father Jamie and Family,
We are void of expressions over this loss that we all feel for you and for ourselves. Our hearts are broken as we miss our dear friend, cherish the memories that she gave to us, and pray for God's strength to be with your family. Our love and prayers are with you each and every day.

Father Jamie,
Please know that you are in our prayers and we hope that God comforts you and your daughters.
May the beautiful memories that fill your heart help to bring you comfort in this time of great sadness.

Fr. Jamie and Family,
All of Eleanor's sisters in Chapter AX of P.E.O. are grieving with you at this tragic loss of such a wonderful person. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Emily and family,
My thoughts are with you at this time of the sudden passing of your mother. I had only recently spoken with her about you applying for the P.E.O. scholarship. She was so proud of you!
May you feel God's presence with you.
Lovingly in P.E.O.,
Ann Ripley, Ch AX

Dear Jamie,
This is one of those rare times in my life that I grasp for the words to convey to you and the girls my heart felt sympathy. May a legion of angels guard and protect each one of you in the following days. She is not gone....she is just sitting at another table close to other loved ones.
My Love and Prayers are with you,
Virginia

Dear Fr. Jamie, Emily, and Susanna,
We were all so sorry to learn of your great loss. Eleanor was a quietly notable woman who obviously loved you all, and will be missed by many. We pray that God keeps His hand over you, and brings you all the comfort you need at this time. Please accept all the love, support, and help you need from your friends and family at this difficult time as our way to honor Eleanor.
In Christ,
Carol, Mark, Christopher, Matt, and Jon

Dear Fr. Jamie, Emily, and Suzanna,
If words fail, as they often do at a time like this, I hope that the love and prayers that are being offered for you all right now will bring you comfort. I am truly going to miss talking to Eleanor about New Orleans and conspiring on how best to keep Jamie from overdoing. Please let us all be your support as you always have been for us. You have an enormous family that is but a call away if you need anything. God bless and comfort you all.

Jamie-

Words seem a trivial way to express how heart broken I am for you and your children. My prayers will always be with you. I know that God's grace and Christ's love will surround you and your family, and may your comfort be found there. Love to all of you.

yours in grief,

Andrea

Dear Jamie,
I was deeply saddened and shocked at the announcement of Eleanors passing into the Lord's Hands. I sincerely pray for you, Emily and Suzanna, that God will hold you to His Bosom during this time until He may walk beside you to help you with this terrible loss. I am so very sorry at your loss and the loss of so many others that Eleanor reached in her travels with God. May God be with you and your girls and comfort you with His love as He now comforts Eleanor at His side. My prayers are with you and all whom this has affected so tragically.
May God bless you and comfort you and your family. My deepest sympathies and prayers are with you, your girls and family and Eleanors family.

I am so sorry for your loss and my prayers go out to you and to my good friends Julia and Dr. William Cain and the entire family.

Fr. Jamie - As you were there for me during my recent loss, I am praying that I can be there for you and the girls during this very painful time of your life.

Jamie, my heart is with you, as yours was with ours. Much love, dear brother........

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Dear Father Jamie and Family,
We pray for your peace, strength, and courage at this sad time.

Our love to all of you! Eleanor was in our daughter, Mary Coleman Cohrs' wedding and Mary's life-long best friend!

Dearest Jamie, Emily and Suzanna,
We are deeply saddened and sorry for your loss. Eleanor was a remarkable woman who touched the lives of many in a quiet and beautiful way. All who knew her were touched by her deep commitment to her family and community. She will be missed. Please try to find comfort in knowing, her legacy lives on and will shine through your faces.

Jamie, Susanna, and Emily, You may not remember us, but we are Leigh's parents from Virginia. We are so very distressed and saddened over this tragic loss of your wife and mother. We are praying for you and trust that you will all be mindful of the abiding presence of the Holy Comforter in the days and months ahead. May God bless each of you abundantly and give you strength and resolve as you go forth from this difficult passage. Joe and Cora Sue Spruill

Jamie,Emily,and Susanna
Words can not express our shock and sadness hearing of Eleanor's passing.To lose your wife and mother in such an unexpected manner seams so cruel at this moment in time. Hold on to the fact that she is with our Lord where she no longer feels any pain, reunited with loved ones that have passed before, and where all of you will be together once again for eternity.We are keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers constantly. Love, Jan and Roy Owings

Jamie, Emily and Susanna - As a family, we all recall the first day we met over fantastic bar-b-que in Kingstree. It feels like just yesterday. While we found a parish priest that day, we also found something much more important - we found 4 friends. After that lunch, we found a word for Eleanor that always came up when her name was raised: class. She was poised and funny, and she was southern poise personified.

Jamie - you have been there for all of us, and it is now time for us to be there for you. God bless.

I am so sorry for your loss. Eleanor was Mary's best friend and like the sister she always wanted. Susalee and I were blessed to grow up with such kind, funny and wise older sisters, and though they teased us, we enjoyed the attention. You all were like a second family for Mary, who loved spending time at your home.

In college, I was fortunate enough to be invited over for dinners and even to spend Thanksgiving with you all at Edisto. This year, I will give thanks for those times and remember how lucky Mary and I were to be "adopted" into your extended family, whose warmth, wit and deep faith were as comforting as your homemade grits!

Seeing old photos of Eleanor, I remember watching her and Mary act out parts from the Carol Burnett Show as kids. I also recall dancing with her at my sister's wedding. As a preacher's kid, I was amazed that she and Susalee both married men who became ministers and dedicated their lives to helping others.

While reading about her in the paper, I was struck by what an accomplished and articulate woman she was and how committed she was to helping the poor. But more than anything, I will remember her little chuckle and the joy and wit she brought to her family, friends and all who were fortunate enough to have known her.

God bless,
Stuart Coleman

Father Jamie,

Our deepest sympanthy to you and the girls. We are greatly saddened to hear of this news. Our prayers are with you and your family.

Michelle, Allen, Arielle and Jon Tabor

Jamie, Emily and Suzanna,
As we talked yesterday I could really sense the void you were feeling. I felt lost trying to console you. Eleanor was such a special lady. True southern charm, with a faith unmatched. She was a joy to know. We will always treasure the time with you in Kingstree, and the meal in Atlanta. I am so sorry for the girls, I know Eleanor was the center of much in their lives. You are in each of our prayers. Emily and Sarah have also mentioned their sorrow, and will keep Emily and Suzannah in their prayers.
In Christ's love,

Dear Jamie and girls: We wish there were something we could say that could ease the terrible pain you must be feeling. We know that's not possible, however. Just remember that there are many people who love you all and are sending our best thoughts and prayers your way.

Father Jamie, I am so sorry for your loss. You and your dear children are in my prayers and my thoughts.

Father Jamie,
Please know that you are in our prayers and we hope that God comforts you and your daughters.

Fr. Jamie—I know the pain that you now feel. Know that your friends are suffering with you and would do anything to help you bear this burden. Eleanor rests now in a place where there is no pain and as the days pass, that will bring some solace to you.

Dear Jamie, Emily, Susanna and all of Eleanor's and Jamie's family,
We are lifting you up in prayer with great love in our hearts for each one of you. Eleanor was such a beautiful and caring person. We will miss her greatly.
May God bless you and give you strength as you travel this difficult path. We ask this in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

"Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)"

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace

The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, Who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine

Jamie & girls, It was an honor to have Eleanor as my friend. Just a couple of months ago we talked for over an hour. I thank God for that precious opportunity. We will miss her. Steve and I love you and we are lifting you up in constant prayer.

Jamie, Emily and Susanna,

Words cannot describe how deeply we feel for you in the loss of your wife and mother, so very dear to your hearts. Eleanor was a beautiful person, and we shall all miss her. Please know we are holding all of you in prayer that God will comfort, sustain you and give you his peace.

Love, Lucy and Ino

Jamie - I am so sorry for your loss. May God bless you and bring your family comfort.
