Eleanor was born in Princeton on July 6, 1947 to Hugh and Dorothy McConnell. She grew up in Allenby, Hope , Merritt and moved to Cache Creek with her family and sister Patti (Dunn) in 1963.
She met Glenn in high school in 1963 and married in 1970.
Eleanor raised six children Steven, Bryan, Chris, Kristy, Sarah and Karen. She left 6 grandchildren.
Eleanor enjoyed family and being at home in her kitchen and golfing with her friends. Her kitchen was her happy place. Family and friends enjoyed many of her great meals. Traveling and camping in our motorhome, boating and water skiing were favourites of hers.
After Glenn retired many winters were spent in Arizonia, golfing and enjoying the warm weather.
The family would like to thank Dr. Proctor, Dr. MacDonald, Dr. Bosman and the staff of the cancer clinic at RIH for the care and compassion shown to Eleanor.
If friends desire, donations can be made to the Royal Inland Hospital Foundation or the Canadian Cancer Society.
