Aunt Eleanor you will be greatly missed. You were a fun Aunt that taught me how to ride a bike. You promised you would not let go but you did. I went down the hill into the circle drive and have been pedaling every since. Love you and Thank you. You will be missed. Your niece, Karol Pote Mayoros
Our sympathies to the family of this very sweet lady! She touched so many lives! She is rocking in heaven today! God‘s blessings to all of you!
It’s hard to know what to say at a difficult time like this. No one can take the place of a Mother, and your Mom will be greatly missed. When Jim & I would be in town visiting my folks, we would pop over and see her. She was always working in her flower gardens, and then she’d feed us. I remember asking her to show me how to make her Italian plum pierogi. We got to the house, and she had every thing already finished. All we had to do was cook them and eat. We had fun times playing pinochle at so many family gatherings when we were younger. Great memories. You’ll be missed, Aunt Eleanore.
Your niece, Linda Pote-Graham
