I played many rounds of golf with Eleanor, she was always smiling even if she missed a
shot. This was @ the Gus Wortham golf course from 1992 until 2011 or 2012.
God bless the family, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Eleanor was such a wonderful and special person, a true gift from God, she will be miss from all of us at River Terrace Golf Course... Even though the family moved she was always missed here... I truly loved it when her and her son Eric would come out and play golf. She always amazed me how well she play, she did a great job keeping up with these men here... I just loved her. May god comfort and bless her family in this time of sorrow. Love, Lori Pritchett and River Terrace Golf Course

The first time I met Eleanor was at the Airport in Houston. We went to meet our daughter Susan who just became engaged to Eleanor & Jims' son, Jimmy. While we were waiting we spotted this couple and decided that must be Jims' folks. They just looked so friendly and nice , like Jimmy. Sure enough, when the kids arrived Eleanor and Jim went right up to them. Lovely , warm friendly couple. We moved away soon after but every visit managed to see them. Wonderful memories. Donna
I remember the summer of '69 when I was 16 years old. That was my "vacation" summer. Uncle Fred and Aunt Mary Ola brought me to Houston from Ohio, and when they left I stayed behind to spend a week with Aunt Eleanor and Uncle Jim. It was a memorable week full of "firsts". A very special memory was a visit to the NASA Space Center (yes, the "Houston we've got a problem" one), and sitting up all night watching the Lunar landing, and Neil Armstrong taking the first steps on the Moon! I traveled from Ohio to Houston to watch an Ohio man make history. It still makes me breathless. Thank you Aunt Eleanor for all the priceless memories, big and small" that you gave me over the years. As long as I have a memory, you will dwell therein. Claire Ann (Harter)
Extending my deepest condolences to the family. Our hearts go out to you in your time of sorrow. You can take comfort in the words of Jesus when he compared death to sleep and resurrected his friend Lazarus who had been dead for four days. John 11:11-14 thus showing what he can do on a grand scale in the near future for all of those resting in the memorial tombs (God's memory). Jonn 5:28, 29. We can also look forward to the time when "no resident will say I am sick". Isa. 33:24.
