I am so sorry for the family of Elenor. I had the privilege of working at Rae Ann in dietary and taking a lot of 1/2 orders for her. That's what she would tell me every time. Loved her and may she rest in peace
Aunt Elenor was truly a gentle soul. She would search my wife and I out at 10 am Mass to say hello and to catch up. She always had a smile on her face and loved to find out about how the rest of the family is doing. Rest In Peace Aunt Elenor.
Deepest sympathy to the entire Stoltz family. Dave and Brenda Quickel

Hugs from home: Many fond memories of Aunt Eleanor. I remember visiting the farmhouse and how she had a room of toys in the back. I have always enjoyed seeing her when I came home for visits and taking her out for birthday meals. She will be missed. Erica Stoltz
