    Eleanor will always have a special place in my heart. My kids (and everyone else’s) loved Childwatch at the Y with Miss Eleanor! I was honored to have the opportunity to work with her; she was a great friend and so wonderful with my Mom, too.
    My heart and thoughts are with you all. Eleanor was an amazing woman and I will cherish the memories I have of her.

    My sincere condolences to the family. I knew her from the YMCA all those years ago. and I knew her grandson, Robby also from the Y. She was always such a wonderful woman. In my opinion she was “good people”. The world is a better place because Eleanor was here. I know that I am a better person for having known her. May she rest in peace. May her family be comforted by their wonderful memories.
