She gained many friendships over those years and maintained them by attending retiree luncheons. In retirement Eleanor volunteered at local hospitals.
After moving to American House, Eleanor was active in many activities. She organized a Euchre club as well as a food improvement committee and was always there to welcome new residents.
Eleanor was best known for her warm smile, kind words and loved to hold your hand. She was extremely devoted to her family, which meant everything to her. The family matriarch. Her family promises to honor her memory by continuing to lead our lives the way she lived hers.
