-My Aunt Eleanor was one of the most giving person I ever knew!  We went to her house every year for Thanksgiving and we always had an amazing time.  We saw her throughout the year at different family functions.  My favorite memory of Aunt Eleanor was when she was driving my brother and I (and maybe our sister ) somewhere and she picked up a hitchhiker!   We were in the back seat and he got into the passenger seat.   I was about 12 and Raymond was 11- I remember thinking " did she just pick up a hitchhiker?"To her -she was helping someone- ( and fearless) and that sums up the kind of person she was. Caring, loving and giving everything she had.
She was always giving to anyone she could( even a stranger) -but especially her children and grandchildren.
She was always smiling and laughing and joking around.....I cannot believe she is gone!  

I'm so so sorry I couldn't be there-Sending love to Uncle Jimmy, Aunt Francis, Maria, and Chris, Michelle and Jamie!  




My trip to Gateway Park will never be the same. Seeing you walking in the morning, saying hello, remembering my name and saying "say hello to _____". In my mind, you will be there walking and waving as always. It shall be remembered as "Ellie's Path".
Until we meet again, one more GKP sunrise

My Aunt Eleanor was a constant in our life!  Her and my mom were like sisters!
We had Thanksgiving at her house every year as long as I can remember- she cooked EVERYTHING!
She was always funny and upbeat! She constantly made me laugh!
We also saw her on other holidays- Fourth of July, Easter, New Years, and Memorial Day !
She was so giving and caring- it’s unimaginable that this happened- we are still processing thtis terrible news- may God grab her peace!
Sending love ❤️ and prayers to Jimmy, Chris, Michelle , Jamie , and the rest of the family.


Great times, great memories, with our good friends. Ellie, you will be missed. Love you, Lynne & Dennis💜

To all the family and friends, 

I loved Ellie , she was an amazing person and always brought a smile to my face and made me laugh. I loved and enjoyed all her stories she told me and all about her life experiences. She was an incredible and amazing person. I loved doing her hair and our talks , and if she wanted a blowout after her color ,she would always said to me times up , if I took too long . “I would say to her I don’t want you to leave yet “ I love your company! She always said how much she loved her family and friends . I will miss seeing her tremendously , I will never forgot her! She touched a special piece of my heart . I send all of you my prayers and love through this very difficult time… 
                                 All my love , Raven 


Ellie, I will always treasure our time spent together. We have traveled to so many places. So many memories. We had so much fun. I will miss those fun times. You will be forever in our hearts. But now, who is going to get the huts? I know you are laughing!!! Love, Lynn and Joe
