So sorry to hear of your loss. Eleanor was a very special friend to me at the lowest point in my life. Her telephones encouraging me to come to church, really meant a lot to me. Her love for the Lord was our common thread. Jesus bless you all!##imported-begin##Terri Forbear##imported-end##

My heart is so sad, Eleanor, that I will not be able to see you again in this life. However, I know that you are in a far better place and rejoicing with the Lord that you love so very much. You have been such a blessing to me over the years, and I have admired your servant's heart. Precious Eleanor, you are finally home, and I know you are happier than you have ever been. I will see you in the rapture some sweet day!##imported-begin##Jane Calloway##imported-end##
Oh Eleanor, I will miss you. Already I wish I had taken more time to call you or send a card in the past year. I will always remember your notes on the back of the church bulletin that comes in the mail every week. I hope you knew how special you were to Oak Crest and to everyone who knew you. I will always remember your smile, and the days from school that we would pass you in the hallway, and the magical Werthers candies that adorned your desk when I was growing up. But now, you have made it!!!
To the Sonnega and Simpson families, what a bittersweet time. My prayers are with you as we release our dear Eleanor into the hands of the Lord, where she is finally home. My His comfort and peace surround you every moment.##imported-begin##Cherea (Hall) Banik##imported-end##
Aunt Elanor you were truly one of a kind!
There was always fun, food, toys and a lesson in everything you did. From when I was young and well into my adulthood you showed me the way to live a life worth living. Journey on, God Bless and I(we) will miss you very much.
Much love and tenderness,
