Grandma Eloise was a Foster Grandmother at Wesley School for many years. She was a loving, caring woman. We remember her laughter and her sense of humor. She always brought joy to the students she worked with.
We would like to share some of the pictures we have with her family.
Is there an e-mail address we could send them to?##imported-begin##Susan Ochs##imported-end##
I had the plesure of knowing Grandma Eliose as she was lovingly known as in wesley school.Loved her laugh and smile and the things she would bring into the classroom to share like a bag of restarant menues that she and her husband went to visit and all the stories of the dinner parties she would host. Eloise was a great lady and she will be greatly missed.##imported-begin##Tina preston##imported-end##
Eloise was a very caring and special person to our classroom. She loved and cared for our students for many years. We had many special times with her as our foster grandmother. We will always remember giving her the mink teddy bear made from a cape her husband had given her. She is missed.
