We send our sympathy to Eleanor's family. We have wonderful memories of her and Dick from the Ashburn UMC. They were good friends.

Eleanor Jane has always been one of my favorite people and I loved her very much. I know that she'll be missed a great deal by everyone who knew her.

As one of several pastors to serve the former Ashburn UMC, Eleanor was a blessing to worship with, to work with, and to be with. As Staff-Parish Chair, she and I had a challenge or two to work on together, which made the challenge easier to handle together. I can still hear her voice from our conversations. What a blessing from God that she has been to many! Her body has ceased existing but her spirit and joy live on within us.Thanks be to God for such a gift!

Eleanor was Coli and Dannys' Grandmother Nethercott! We will all miss her. She was always sweet, gentle, and caring with my family and we always looked forward to talking with her. She will be missed! Our 8yr old son, Danny, said it best, "This is a very sad day for the people who new her!"
