I still remember the first time I called bingo at Harrisburg River Rescue back in the 70's & I noticed that Eleanor was not putting chips on her cards then I realized she remembered what numbers she had which totally amazed me. She would talk about her husband, her children & grandchildren & how she loved them. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
