To the family of Eleanor, I met your mom/grandma through my aunt, Juanita Moss, who volunteered with her at Blessing Hospital and the Home Extension. They had a long, wonderful friendship. Ellie was patient, kind and quiet spry. Her legacy will continue through your family's generations. I am thankful I got to know her a wee bit. I extend my condolences to your family.
