Eleanor was my aunt, Stanley was my Dad's brother(George). To lose both in such a short period of time is tragic, but they are together now along with my mom and dad. My sympathies to the whole family.

Eleanor was my Godmother. My early memories of her are laughing and taking us to carnivals. Although she was my sister she was a friend and a big kid at heart.

She loved life and playing pranks. She taught us the board and card games she enjoyed. I love her and she will always live in my heart.

We affectionately called Eleanor, "the Bingo lady"-we will remember her with a smile on her face.....perhaps she is yelling Bingo! and sharing a piece of kugelis with Russell, her cousin, our dad and husband, right now! :)
