Eleanor Pappin Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Eleanor was born and raised in Jamaica Plain, MA and graduated from Blessed Sacrament high school. It was there she made her group of dear and life long friends. She went on to marry and raise 3 daughters and have 7 Grandchildren. Her family was the center of her world and of the utmost importance to her. She had a heart and home that was open to many friends of her girls throughout the years. She embodied patience and kindness and was loved dearly by all who knew her. She loved the simple pleasures in life including trips to the beach, music and food. In later years, she was able to enjoy her 7 beautiful grandchildren who adore her. They will always have a special place in their hearts for "Mum". Her humor and sweetness will be greatly missed.
A private funeral service was held at the P.E. Murray - F.J. Higgins Funeral Home West Roxbury. A Private burial followed at St. Joseph Cemetery, West Roxbury.
