I worked with Eleanor at the cable company, we had a blast! I always called her Red. I cannot believe she is gone, she always made me laugh. I don't think you remember me Andrea and Jerry but I remember you both as kids. I was at the funeral today and I can't begin to tell you how heavy my heart is for all of you. God bless you.

I have not seen Sarah for several years, but I can still hear her beautiful voice. She was a wonderfully kind woman.

Sarah was a great story teller. I have fond memories of her stories when we worked together at Lincoln.
I am so sorry to hear of her death. God Bless you Sarah.
