Barb & family, Deanna & Barbara & families, Our sincere sympathy and condolences on the passing of Eleanor. She and Elliott were great neighbours for many years.
Eleanor always greeted us with a big smile and the time to talk wherever we happened to meet. A real example of a life lived long and well. She has earned her rest.
