Eleanor was truly one of a kind—devoted to her family above all else and loved by all who had the pleasure of knowing her. Her warmth, strength, and generous spirit left a lasting impression on everyone she met. She built a beautiful legacy through the love and care she shared with her family and friends. Eleanor will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
