My sincere condolences on the death of your mother and sister, Eleanor. May God be very close to you at this time and give you peace. Though this is a sad time for you, it is good that you share the information about Eleanor and her family. Others are appreciative of this remembrance. I know Eleanor was a dear lady because she was the sister of Ruth, a classmate of mine at Wesleyan College, whom I remember fondly. We kept up for several years but lost contact years ago. It is my desire to be in touch with Ruth again and hope she will want to do the same and contact me.
Blessings on all of you,
