Words can’t express how sorry I am for your loss. Eleanor was a very special Lady, and I had the privilege of being her beautican, for many years. She always had a smile on her face, and who could ever forget that laugh. She always seemed so happy. She was also a very hard working Lady. Everytime I drive by her house on Justice Ridge, It will always be Eleanor’s house. God Bless You All.
I hope someday I’ll get to see that smiling face and hear that laugh once again. She’s in a much better place than we are and I know our Lord Jesus welcomed her with open arms.
God Bless You One And All, and May The Lord Comfort You In Your Time Of Need.
Sincerly,

Dear Janice, Linda, Pat and Michelle,
We are sorry to hear of Eleanor’s passing. Susan, Michael and I have fond memories of our dear neighbor’s on Justice Ridge in the 70’s and 80’s, especially the homemade ice cream on Eleanor’s carport.
Thinking of you guys!
Janice – we were so sorry to read in the paper about you mother – she was such a sweet lady and i know you will really miss her- please know you are in our thoughts and prayers –
peggy and charley
I wish it were possible to be with you during this sad time. I always enjoyed taking my Mom (Aunt Bessie) to visit Eleanor when I was home. We had many great discussions about our ancestors and I cherish those visits and memories. I know you will miss her just as we miss Mom — but we were truly blessed with the many good years we had our mothers.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May the Lord grant you peace and understanding.
Dear Janice and Family:
Sorry to learn about your mother – she was a very sweet lady and I know you have wonderful memories that will always bring smiles to your heart. My prayers are with you and this time. Take Care! Phyllis McKinney Jamison
Pat,Linda & family,
