Loving daughter of the late Elisabetta and Giovanni Cristiano. Also preceded in death were her 9 brothers and sisters.

At 32 years old, she lost her Beloved husband of 11 years, Nick Nickoloff.

Survived by her adoring son Robert. Raised her son from 6 until he graduated college. Her deep love for her son was evident to all. There wasn't anything she wouldn't do for him and a she was a very proud mom.

She was born into Italian heritage, enjoyed her culture and participated in its community, and wore the culture well.

She is also survived by her future daughter-in-law and granddaughter Cindy and Sydney, all her nieces and nephews and especially her favorite nephew Phil, favorite nieces Phyllis and Mary Ann, her best friend Camille, Caroline her friend and caregiver, Anna, Ali and his twin sons, her Heritage Park neighbors especially Kay, Caroline, Joey, and Joey. She was blessed to have many loving friends.

Eleanor retried from Pepsi Cola after 18 years of service.

She was a very elegant woman, proud, and strong.

She had a gregarious personality, loved to meet new people, spoke to everyone, extremely generous, compassionate, giving, and full of love. She too was opinionated, felt if she gave her opinion or guidance you should follow her advice. Hair care, colorist, nail tech, restaurant, hand cream, bed buddy warmer, Hobby Lobby, those of you will know the meaning.

Loved her Catholic community and defended it vigorously.

She loved travel, California, Arizona, Festa Italianna in Milwaukee, especially Italy, and her last big vacation with her son in 2019 at Orlando Portofino Resort.
