She was born in Portland, Maine on February 8, 1926 to the late Martin & Agnes (Jensen) Hansen.
One day, Charles Eaton spotted this lovely girl working in a tea shop and knew right away he would marry her. They shared 51 years of marriage together, and built a beautiful family. Eleanor doted upon Charles in sickness and in health, always the caregiver, always with a true servant's heart. But don't be mistaken, she also told the truth no matter what! Of course, her dear friends and family loved her for it.
Though we miss her very much, we thank God she is free.
Eleanor was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Charles, and her dear parents.
She is survived by her daughters, Donna Browne and Gail Eaton; grandsons, David (Rachael) Browne, Jr. and Dennis (Wendy) Browne; and great grandchildren, Alyssa, Andrew (Abbey), Patrick and Cailynn Browne. Also, special friends were Vikki Browne and Chris Woodall, and many cousins in many places.
A small graveside service will be held at 10:00am on Thursday, August 24th at Chapel Hill Cemetery, 2420 Harrell Road, Orlando, FL 32817.
A memorial celebration will be planned for October at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, 1515 S. Semoran Blvd., Orlando, FL 32807. Further details to follow as they become available.
In lieu of flowers, the Eaton Family invites you to make a donation in Eleanor's name to the church.
