Eleanor Mae Sellers

Eleanor Sellers was called home to Heaven on October 9, 2023, at Robson Reserve Assisted Living with her beloved husband, Michael, by her side.

Born June 26, 1937 in St Paul, Minnesota, grew up in Clinton, MN and moved to California in her late teens. It was there she met and married the love of her life, with their marriage lasting 66 years. In 1991 they made Sun Lakes their home, enjoyed their golden years, and continued to live a happy fun-filled life.

Although Eleanor spent most of her life with low vision, she did not let it define her. Over the years, she loved to run (including 5k races), swim long distance, water ski, follow the AZ Diamondbacks, visit with her nieces and nephews, and alway loved a good party.

Eleanor is preceded Heaven by her 3 sons, Kenneth, Kevin and Keith; her sister Bea Whitney of Sun Lakes, and brother, Roger Devor, Minnesota. In addition to her loving husband, Michael, she is survived by step-children, Pamela Perry and Sheila Sellers of Sun Lakes, and Michael Sellers, Tucson.

Services will be held at Valley of the Sun Mortuary and Cemetery, 10940 East Chandler Heights Rd, Chandler, AZ 85248, beginning @ 9:30am in the venue on October 20, 2023, followed by a graveside @ 10:30am. Family and friends may visit beginning and 9:00am.

Lunch will follow at Robson Reserve, 9504 E Riggs Rd, Sun Lakes, AZ. We encourage all to wear sports jerseys as she loved her D’Backs.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Praise & Worship Center or Arizona Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired.
