In my eyes, Eleanor was the epitome of a P.E.O. member. I am grateful that the final years of her 70 as a member of a P.E.O. member were spent being a Chapter EO sister alongside of me. She was a role model for us all as she demonstrated a willingness to serve and lead, as well as sincere loving concern for others. I am so glad to have known her and shared her good company.

Eleanor was an inspiration for all the members of B-COS We Care. She continued to share wisdom, provide guidance, and participate in conference calls up to a few weeks before her passing. Such a gentle, kind soul. She will be missed. Our sincere thanks to her daughter, Linda, for providing support and staying in contact.
