Always optimistic, always interested in the family excitement and what was new.  Kind, gentle, compassionate, and full of life.  To the very end she never gave up looking for the next adventure.  Through her excellent organizational skills, we have found many memories among the keepsakes she has treasured over the years.  A book of poetry given to her mother in 1915, a photo of Prospect Point in 1935, a group wedding photo on the Vancouver city BC Electric Railway Co tram in 1933, a transcript of Lights of Christmas radio broadcast from Detroit in 1937, photos and memoirs of the many cruises she and Bill were on.  Always a lady, always well presented, always respectful of others.  She will be cherished and remembered fondly by all who were fortunate enough to have her in their lives.  
Love forever, Aunt Eleanor!
Pat, Dan, and the girls.
