Greetings to Randy & Debbie my neighbors growing up! 

i, unlike so many, remember the time we spent as neighbors. i especially remember "Mrs. Hazen" as i always called her on the few days she was at home entertaining me, especially with her art. i always loved being near her on those days we did get to spend time together.  More than anything, though, i remember"Mr. Hazen" out on the track early in the morning. i was always charmed by his greetings that usually came with a grin and a nod of kind recognition but always with few, if any, words. But i always knew he was a great "horse whisperer!"

Anyway, i was surprised to see this obituary! i guess i assumed years ago that other's parents hadnt lived that much longer than 89 or 99 when mine passed... BUT how WONDERFUL you were BLESSED by ElDora for so many many years.. she was SO beautiful inside and out.

 Wishing you a happy and memorable holiday season this year and always ~Elaine Wright

i miss you ALL so long ago BACK in the "good old days" ~much Love ALWAYS R. Elaine Wright a/k/a robin kuhn

Eldora and Judith were our neighbors when we lived on Cessna Dr. In Planeview, in Wichita. I remember her well and my mother baby sit Judith, Randy, and Debbie. Her beautiful smile, and sense of humor was something no one could forget. Eldora and my sister Pat were good friends,  I'm sorry I didn't know of her passing until I was trying to find Judith Kay to send her some pictures of your family. Love to all of you.

Thank God, for the memories!   Of this beautiful mother of mine.  She was a strong woman,  always showed her feminine side too.  
Yes, she had quite a smile, even this late in her life, 94.  We would be driving around, just going no where in particular and I’d look over at her and she’d be smiling. I’d ask her why are you smiling, her response was, nothing, just enjoying the drive.  
Once I was in trouble with her, we argued I was a teenager!  But I ran into my room slamming the door,  it didn’t close all the way. I must have sat in there 10 maybe 15 minutes and I heard a noice at my door, looked at a mirror poking through the crack, it was her checking  on me.  Laughing out loud, both of us and the fight was over.  
She was always our protector, could always rely on her being on our side.  
She did love  her children and grandchildren,  not perfect, but very close to it.  
Love you very much, Mother.  Bless You.  ❌⭕️

I’m Avery Walker, Eldora’s 12 year old great-grand daughter and I’ve already said this at her funeral but why not tell it again! In Overland Park, Kansas my grandma (Debbie Lambert) and her were coming to our home and staying for a while. One afternoon she was sitting at the dinner table, drawing a tree with long blades of grass with a swing hanging off of it with no color yet. She invited me to sit over by her and draw with her. Drawing was a HUGE passion of mine, so of course I wanna to draw with her! She told me stories about her being a illustrator for a newspaper company and I thought of how amazing that would have been. You could be paid to do a hobby of yours! I said to my grandma and mom that I imagine that she’s painting a painting looking down at us all, we are her models, her perfect figures. We all will miss her.

We met Eldora in the early nineties after  moving to Rose Hill, across the street from Eldora,  She was a strong woman caring for her husband, we crossed paths in numerous ways and that started a friendship and more. Waving at each other from across the street as she sat on her porch swing, going across the street to visit with her.  
Quick with her smile and charm that made you feel she was truly happy to see you. Thru out the years we were blessed to know Eldora and her family.  Our condolences to Judith Kay, Randy and Debbie and their families for their loss. We feel the same loss of a extraordinary person in our life. God Bless.

Judith Kay, Randy , Debbie and all the family, We are so sorry for your loss. El Dora was a very beautiful and classy lady. She was beautiful on the outside but most importantly she was beautiful on the inside. She always made each person she met feel special. A beautiful quality in a person and it was as natural a her beautiful smile. Our thoughts, hugs, love and prayers are with you during this difficult time of sorrow. God Bless. Danny and Roberta
